ID terrestrial plants

[Bolota]

Does anybody knows anything about these plants?
I collected them from nature. They grow on the shade side of palm trees between the moss. One looks like a fern, the other (round leave) looks pretty much as the emersed H. verticilata.
I attached them together with the moss on top of the tank... I hope they grow.
Would you recommend anything special to increase the chances of survival? I'm wetting them once a day with the aquarium water.

Thanks!

Hi all,
The round leaved plant is Umbillicus rupestris, the other plant is a fern but I don't know which one.

Hi all,
I've got a better monitor this time, the fern looks like a Polypodium sp. (have a look <"P. cambricum">). Umbilicus is pretty drought resistant. We have a couple of threads <"Are these plants aquati..."> and <"Could this be.....">

cheers Darrel

Thanks Darre,

Umbilicus is pretty drought resistant

So... watering them every day is not such a good idea after all...?!

Soon you wont. The beetles are killing most of them!

I'd treat them like an orchid or a bromeliad, may be spray them every day, and a good soak once a week?
