 PREFACE. 
 
 THE general purpose of the series of Hand-lists of the 
 plants cultivated in the Royal Gardens which is in 
 course of publication, and of which the present one is a 
 part, is sufficiently indicated in the preface to that which 
 enumerates the trees and shrubs. 
 
 The collection of Ferns, whether tropical or temperate, 
 is perhaps, next to that of Palms, the most important 
 feature of the cultivation under glass in the Royal 
 Gardens. 
 
 A special interest attaches to it, because it has been 
 used so much in the preparation of most of the books and 
 papers dealing with ferns which have been published in 
 this country during the last half century. The celebrated 
 botanical artist, Francis Bauer, was resident draughtsman 
 for 50 years (1790-1840) to the Royal Botanic Gardens at 
 Kew, and the beautiful series of analytical drawings of 
 ferns which he made were published by Sir William 
 Hooker, after his death in 1842, with descriptive letter- 
 press and additions, under the title of Genera Filicum. 
 During the 25 years (1840-1865) for which Sir William 
 Hooker was the director of the gardens, his attention 
 was specially concentrated on ferns. Under the title of 
 Species Filicum he published an elaborate work in five

 volumes, in which all the known species of typical ferns 
 are fully described, and their synonomy and geographical 
 distribution worked out, with copious illustrations by 
 Mr. Walter Fitch. Of this, the first volume appeared in 
 1846, and the last in 1864. He planned also a condensed 
 hand-book of all the known ferns, to be called Synopsis 
 Filicum, intended specially for the use of colonists and 
 travellers. All the drawings for this had been made, 
 but the letter-press was not far advanced when he died in 
 the autumn of 1865. It was completed by Mr. J. G. 
 Baker, F.R.S., now Keeper of the Herbarium, in 1868, 
 and a second edition was brought out in 1874. Since 
 that date many hundred new species have been dis- 
 covered, and a volume of Hooker's Icones Plantarwn, 
 containing plates and descriptions of the more interesting 
 of the novelties, was published in 1887. Mr. Baker ha g 
 also published in the Annals of Botany (1891) a summary 
 of new ferns discovered or described since 1874. The 
 type specimens from which most of the descriptions and 
 plates contained in this series of books have been made 
 are deposited in the Kew Herbarium. 
 
 The living collection in the garden owes its com- 
 pleteness very largely to the zeal and assiduity with 
 which the veteran pteridologist, Mr. John Smith, curator 
 of the Royal Gardens from 1841-63, watched over it for 
 more than 40 years. 
 
 In his privately printed Records of Kew (pp. 322, 323) 
 he gives the following particulars of its origin and de- 
 velopment : " In the year 1822 I found the collection of 
 ferns at Kew extremely poor, especially as regards tropical 
 species, very many of those introduced in previous years 
 
having been lost and very few new ones added. . . . The 
 tender exotic species were more or less of them growing 
 without any arrangement in different houses, and un- 
 named, their number amounting to about 40. In 1825 I 
 arranged the tropical species in a group at the end of the 
 then lean-to house . . . now included in the tropical fern 
 house, the area they occupied being 6 ft. by 12 ft. These 
 formed the nucleus of the now great collection. They 
 were successively added to by importations of living 
 plants, as also plants raised from spores obtained from 
 herbarium specimens." 
 
 " The collection continued yearly to increase, and in 
 1846 [1845] I drew up a list of the collection, which was 
 published in an appendix to the Botanical Magazine, for 
 that year ; the number then amounted to 400 [378] species. 
 This in 1857 [1856] was followed by another list, entitled 
 * Catalogue of Cultivated Ferns,' in which 600 [504] species 
 are enumerated." 
 
 . The principal books published by Mr. Smith are his 
 Ferns, British and Foreign, issued in 1866, which con- 
 tains a classified list of all the species then known in 
 cultivation, full directions for the cultivation of ferns of 
 the different climatic types and by far the most complete 
 history of their gradual introduction which .has ever 
 appeared in print, and his Historia Filicum, issued in 
 1875, which contains woodcuts of 220 types and gives a 
 full exposition of his views on fern classification. 
 
 In 1868 the last published list was prepared by Mr. J. G. 
 Baker. It enumerates 802 species and varieties of ferns 
 and 48 of fern allies. 
 
VI 
 
 The present list comprises 1116 species and varieties of 
 ferns and 97 of fern allies ; this is exclusive of British 
 ferns, of which 536 varieties are in cultivation. 
 
 The collection falls into three great groups : (i.) 
 Tropical; (ii.) Temperate; and (iii.) Hardy Ferns. 
 
 The Tropical Ferns are cultivated in No. II. House. 
 
 The Temperate Ferns are cultivated in No. III. ; the 
 Filmy Forns have a separate House (No. II. A), con- 
 structed for the special treatment which they require. 
 The fine collection of Temperate Tree Ferns is contained 
 in the Temperate House. 
 
 The Hardy Ferns are arranged on and about a small 
 
 7 
 rockery, of the Key Plan, and forming the south 
 
 boundary of Lawn L. 
 
 The structural deveJopment of the buildings in which 
 the collection is housed has kept pace with its growth. 
 Their history may be given briefly. 
 
 The Tropical Fern House (No. II.) is a span-roofed 
 house 129 feet long, 34 feet broad, and 15 feet high in the 
 centre. It has a wide transept on the south side, 40 feet 
 long. 33 feet wide, and 19 feet high. 
 
 In 1841 the site of this house was occupied by two 
 lean-to houses used for miscellaneous collections of stove 
 plants. They are enumerated in Dr. Lindley's Report to 
 the Treasury (1838) as Nos. 2 and 3 ; the former stood to 
 the west, and was 50 feet long ; the length of the other 
 

 via 
 
 was 60 feet. It was in No. 2 that, as stated above, John 
 Smith first arranged the nucleus of the collection of 
 Tropical Ferns. 
 
 In 1843, No. 2 was doubled and made into a span 
 house. 
 
 In 1845, No. 3 was entirely taken down, and a new 
 span -roofed house erected in its place. It joined on to 
 No. 2, which was kept at a somewhat lower temperature, 
 but opened into it through a partition. The centre was 
 filled up with slate shelf staging, and the sides with stone 
 shelves. No. 2 was used as a stove for rare palms and 
 large tropical ferns. No. 3 was at first occupied by the 
 Woburn collection of orchids presented by Her Majesty 
 the Queen ; for this purpose it proved eventually un- 
 suited. The orchids were gradually replaced by Aroidece 
 and ferns. Ultimately the latter obtained possession of 
 the whole house. According to John Smith (Records, p. 
 334), " the centre of the house was a raised sloping 
 rockery, amongst which the plants were growing in a 
 natural state, forming fine bushy specimens." 
 
 A small house for tree ferns was built in 1861 ; this 
 was connected with the principal house in 1868, and now 
 forms the transept. 
 
 In 1879 the Tropical Fern House, which from the 
 decay of the timbers had lapsed into an almost ruinous 
 condition, was further severely damaged by the hail 
 storm of August 3rd; 1,152 panes of glass in it were 
 broken. It was subsequently put into a thorough state 
 of repair, but the collections received considerable 
 damage. 
 
viii 
 
 In 1887 the west end of the house was set back a few 
 feet ; the staging was partly re-arranged and the broad 
 path through the transept was made. 
 
 The humid conditions necessary for the cultivation of 
 tropical ferns are unfortunately not conducive to the 
 preservation of the structures in which they are grown 
 when they are built of wood. In 1889 it therefore again 
 became necessary to renew the east wing of No. II. House. 
 In order to secure greater durability it was decided to use 
 iron for the principal framework, and wood only for the 
 lights. The top ventilation was provided for by means 
 of a lantern in&tead of by the older and more clumsy 
 method of sliding sashes. At the same time the use of 
 green glass in the reconstructed wing was abandoned 
 This was introduced at Kew in 1846 on the recommenda- 
 tion of the late Mr. Robert Hunt, F.R.S., who advocated 
 its use on theoretical grounds which are now known to be 
 mistaken. The resulting improvement in the growth of 
 the plants, especially the species of Adiantum was very 
 marked, and in 1892 a portion of the west wing was 
 re-glazed with equally satisfactory results. 
 
 The temperate ferns are now collected in a house 
 (No. HI.), which was also built on the system of mixed 
 iron and wood construction. It was erected in 1892 to 
 take the place of a decayed and obsolete structure com- 
 posed of two small greenhouses united together, Nos. 4 
 and 5 of Dr. Lindley's report. The former (the northern 
 wing) was erected in 1803, and in 1840 contained New 
 Holland and Cape plants ; the latter, which was " re- 
 modelled " in 1825, was filled with succulents* 
 
ix 
 
 The reconstructed No. III. is a span-roofed house 60 
 feet long, 23 feet wide, and 13 feet high. It contains a 
 broad central and two side stages, with paths on both 
 sides. 
 
 The north wing of the former No. III. had been 
 latterly devoted almost exclusively to filmy ferns after 
 the Kew collection had been enriched by the gift of that 
 formed by the late John Cooper Forster, which was 
 presented to the Royal Gardens in 1888 by his widow. 
 
 The collection is now contained in the new Filmy Fern 
 House (No. II. A.) erected on the north side of No. II. 
 It is 50 feet long by 14 feet wide, with a central path and 
 two cases running the full length of the house. 
 
 The hardy ferns occupy the rockery originally devoted 
 to Alpine plants (before the construction of the Rock 
 Garden in 1882), and it extends over part of the adjacent 
 ground. A collection was established here in 1874, and 
 the rockery itself was reconstructed in 1888. 
 
 The collection as a whole is now probably the richest in 
 existence in garden forms of British species. This is due 
 to the munificent bequest by W. C. Carbonell, Esq., of 
 the extensive collection formed by him at Rhiw Castell, 
 Usk, Monmouthshire. The whole was removed to Kew 
 in 1887. It consisted of 4,261 specimens, many probably 
 unique, besides some hundreds of seedlings. 
 
 The total number of well-marked species of ferns and 
 the vascular Cryptogamia (fern allies) now mounts up to 
 3,500. Not more than one-third of these have been 
 23941 $ 
 
brought into cultivation, and Kew is always glad to 
 receive any additions, if possible in the form of well- 
 established plants ; if not, in the shape of dry spores, 
 which can be collected and sent very easily by post in 
 small packets. 
 
 The following table, which shows the percentage of the 
 total number of ferns found in different parts of the world 
 was drawn up by Mr. Baker in 1867 ; but he does not 
 think that the discoveries of the last 20 years will have 
 altered any of the figures materially : 
 
 Arctic Zone 1 per cent. 
 
 Europe 4 
 
 Temperate Asia, including 
 
 Himalayas 18 
 
 Temperate N. America ... ... 5 
 
 Temperate S. Africa ... ... 7 
 
 Australia and New Zealand ... 9 
 
 South temperate America ... 5 
 
 Tropical Africa ... ... ... 15 ,, 
 
 Tropical Asia ... ... ... 39 ,, 
 
 Tropical America... ... ...42 ,, 
 
 The present hand list is divided into three parts : 
 (i.) Ferns proper (pp. 13-133) ; 
 (ii.) Fern allios (pp. 133-113) ; and 
 
 (iii.) as an appendix, a list of garden forms of British 
 species (pp. 145-183). 
 
 With regard to (i.) ferns proper, the arrangement is 
 alphabetical and synonyms have been only sparingly 
 introduced, those included being chiefly such as are in 
 
XI 
 
 use in gardens and which are here referred to the correct 
 name in each case. It has not been thought necessary, 
 therefore, to supply an index. Those who wish to pursue 
 the study of fern -nomenclature further may fall back on 
 Hooker and Baker's Synopsis Filicum, upon which the 
 present hand-list is substantially based. 
 
 The fern allies (ii.) have also been grouped alphabetically. 
 It has not been thought necessary for the present purpose 
 to separate them according to a botanical classification. 
 
 The cultivated and feral varieties of British ferns (iii.) 
 have been enumerated in an appendix. Although the 
 collection of them at Kew is very rich, they stand in a 
 different position to the collection of recognised and well- 
 determined species. Apart from their intrinsic beauty, 
 which is often striking, they are of considerable scientific 
 interest as showing the range of variation due to crossing 
 and seminal reproduction. The amateurs and cultivators 
 who have raised them have furnished them with Latin 
 names, often cumbrous and fantastic, which have received 
 no formal definition. They cannot, therefore, be fixed or 
 quoted for any scientific purpose ; they have, in fact, the 
 same relationship to the species from which they have 
 originated as bedding pelargoniums bear to Pelargonium 
 zonale or as the drumhead and other cabbages to Brassica 
 oleracea.

 PREFACE TO SECOND EDITION. 
 
 THE edition of the Hand-List of Ferns and Fern- 
 Allies cultivated in the Royal Gardens which was issued 
 in 1895 has for some time been exhausted. Since its 
 publication some change has taken place in the compo- 
 sition of the Fern-collection. The present edition, the 
 preparation of which for the press has been entrusted to 
 Mr. C. H. Wright, A.L.S., Assistant in the Herbarium, is 
 an attempt to enumerate the species and varieties now in 
 cultivation at Kew. The species that have been acquired 
 since 1895 are ihere included ; those that are not now in 
 cultivation at Kew have been omitted. A few casual errors 
 that had crept into the previous edition have been corrected. 
 To facilitate the identification of the plants selected 
 references have been given to publications in which 
 reliable figures are to be found. In other respects the 
 present edition follows the lines on which the edition of 
 1895 was prepared. 
 
 The table drawn up by Mr. J. G. Baker, F.R.S., in 
 1867, to show the percentage of the total number of ferns 
 that had been collected up to that time in different 
 parts of the world, which is included in the preface to 
 the 1895 edition of this hand-list, is found, in the light of 
 our present knowledge of the groups dealt with, to 
 require revision. It will not be possible, until some 
 general list, such as Carl Christensen's admirable Index 
 Filicum (now in course of publication) is available, 
 
xiii 
 
 to give absolute percentages. But the subjoined table, 
 which may be taken as approximately accurate, will, it is 
 hoped, be useful both in itself and for comparison with 
 Mr. Baker's table, which remains of great historical 
 interest :

 Himalayas above 8,000 ft. ... 25'5
