    Thanks guys. this is really wierd, coz I looked at Hemionitis and there were more similarities than it is to crytomium. but just by looking at the photo from the link for crytomium..it look just like it......

    most leaves are attached to one stem, but i think i need to let it grow for a bit coz it's too earily tell. think the leaf heads will spit into multiples later..

    I think that your plant is a good example of what photopro tells us: the juvenile form of a plant can and often does look very different from the adult!
