A couple of nice ferns blechnum and dicksonia

Featured Replies

A great couple of ferns for the garden, blechnum gibbum and dicksonia Antarctica. The blechnum are easy and fast growing. The dicksonia was a purchase as just a stem and no foliage, basically bare rooted.

They just need a little attention now and then with a bit of water. And both offering that tropical looking palm that’s so desired!

In my mind they're both more temperate rainforest ferns...here's a few growing together in NE Tasmania:
