donors will receive preference and at any time orders will be dealt with as follows: Overseas donors,
home donors, overseas non-donors, home non-donors. Many items in the list are in very short supply
so apply early and give plenty of alternatives.

Spore Exchange 2013 - Additional Information
Spores are received in good faith from donors, but cannot be guaranteed true to name, nor are there
any assurances about their viability. Before inclusion names have been reviewed using: The Plant List
http://www.theplantlist.org The Checklist of World Ferns by Michael Hassler and Brian Swale
http://homepages.caverock.net.nz/~bj/fern/ and PteridoWiki http://www.fernforum.net
Cultivars may not come true and should be labelled accordingly.
Plant Hardiness Zones. The list includes, where possible, plant hardiness zone numbers for North
America and Europe. These are collated from ‘The Encylopedia of Garden Ferns’ by Sue Olsen, Timber
Press, 2007, ISBN 978-0-88192-8198 and ‘The Plantfinders Guide to Garden Ferns’ by M H Rickard,
David and Charles/Timber Press, ISBN 0 71,53 1,536-6, by kind permission of the authors.
Labelling. Each spore packet is labelled with a three part code number comprising: year of donation -
unique species/taxon number - donor number. These numbers should be noted and used if there are
any inquiries.
Members in the USA requesting spores require a 'Small Lots of Seeds' permit from their
government. See: http://www.aphis.usda.gov/permits/ppq_epermits.shtml or by mail at:- USDA-
APHIS-PPQ, Permit Unit, 4700 River Road, Unit 133, Riverdale, MD 20737-1236 TEL: 1-877-770-5990;
FAX: (301) 734-5786 When you send your order form, we need a photocopy of the permit, the
conditions attached to it, a green and yellow customs label for that permit, and stamps or mailing
account number, for the customs to send on the spores to you.
About Donations. We accept spores on the basis that they have been legally acquired and that they
can be freely distributed through our exchange with no restrictions as to their use.
Donations of fresh spores to replenish stocks are welcome at any time, ideally sent to us as soon after
harvesting as possible. To be sure of inclusion in the 2014 list, they should be sent before the end of
November. Donors of at least 5 different taxa will get priority treatment and can request up to 10 extra
packets.
Osmunda Spores. Owing to the short period of the viability of green spores, Matt Busby is willing to
supply, on request, fresh spores of:- Osmunda regalis, O. r. cristata, O.r.Crispa (syn. Undulatifolia) O.r.
Decomposita and O.r.Purpurascens. He may also be able to supply spores of:- Osmunda claytoniana, O.
cinnamomea, O. japonica and O. asiatica. Subject to availability, early application is advised to A R
Busby, 16 Kirby Corner Road, Canley, Coventry CV4 8GD U.

Acknowledgements
Spore Exchange List - 2013
In this, our first year running the exchange, we would like to acknowledge our indebtedness to Barry
and Anne Wright and to Matt Busby. The Wrights developed the process for managing the exchange
that we have been able to adopt and made much of the equipment we are using today. Matt has been
very patient in making sure we were properly acquainted with the work and has always been on hand
to answer our questions. That said any mistakes are entirely our own!
Spore donation is at the heart of the exchange and we are extremely grateful for the contributions of
this year’s donors: P. Acock, J. Bouckley, C. Brotherton, M. Busby, A. Dyer, J. Eek, C. Fredermann,
R. Golding, Y. Golding, M. Hayward, M. Huge, N. Koleszar, F. Lanyon, B. Nollmeyer, K. Norgaard-
Pedersen, S. Olsen, J. Petty, S. Pierce, B. Russ, J. Schedler, P. Singer, R. Smith, S. Sorensen, K. Stocks,
