Those Ferns looks like they lived with the Dinosaurs without even the humans yet!

Absolutely right. Fossils of the Dicksonia genus date back to the Jurassic period, more than 145 million years ago, so dinosaurs enjoyed them for a casual 80 million years plus. While Dicksonia antartica is found in Australia these days, the name refers to the time of Gondwana when those continents were still connencted.

Love your videos! I have a beautiful Tasmanian Tree Fern here in Northern California and need to replant into a smaller container that will be 2'x2'x3'. Wondering and hoping you might have some replanting tips for me. We have just started our cool spring weather. See my identification photo shows my Fern. Thank you!

Hello, how long have you had this fern? Does this stay out year round or is it grown inside? I am trying one for the second time and any info would be great. Thanks, Kevin

We have hundreds of acres of tree ferns in the forrest on and around our property here in tasmania. We have some that blow over so we transplant those, some of which the trunks are over 4metres tall,The do gro best in shady areas and the leaves will stay a more deep green too. We also have some that sprung up on there own in sunny cleared areas and are doing well. They can get a little burnt on the leaves from hot sunny days and frost in winter but snow is fine. They will be ok in sunny areas as long as the summers are under 25 degrees celcius and good rainfall as it is here in tasmania.

There are some tree ferns in Australia that are ok in direct strong sun .... and I planted one a few years ago and its doing fine, and I do agree about the watering requirement ... I just prune off the lower dead branches and give it some foliar feeding. I live in sub tropical Ballina NSW Australia. and they grow in the rainforest remnant {the bg scrub] and often in an adjoining field in very strong sun.

We have quite a few tree fern sago here in mid New South Wales in Australia. They seem to be all directly under the sun. Maybe it is a different species? The Sagos grow very fast. About a metre a year I recon. What is happening is that when the top layer of leaves grows, the second layer turns yellow and dies. As a result, you always have at least three colours on the fern(green, yellow and brown).
@takeitlikeawoman2 жыл бұрын
Do you need to water the ferns at all over the winter period? I know how to protect them, but I don't want the growing point to dry out - or freeze.

Tree ferns occur in the Australian high country where winters are wet and above certain elevations it snows so they should be fine

My tree fern has been wrapped in straw with chicken wire to secure. I left the leaves on from last year and they are still looking as fine as they did last year. Do I need to remove old leaf, to give best conditions to new fronds ( when they arrive) or keep the old leaves to add to its bulk? I have heard both suggestions. X

peasuncarrots Maybe it is the size of the pot. Try planting into a pot not much bigger than the circumference of the roots. Remember the roots of the plant is the brown part not the underneath of the plant as in normal plants.
@cjw79244 жыл бұрын
Dicksonia antarctica is only one of many "Australian Tree ferns" and one of the most difficult to cultivate. a far better option would be the common or rough tree fern "Cyathea australis" it tolerates sun far better and is far hardier, the drawback is they do not transplant by being cut off like the dicksonia a. it needs its roots intact. The up side is that it grows much quicker. Other species such as .Cyathea australis and Cyathea cooperi lacy tree ferns are more pleasing to the eye.

Aaaaargh! No - they should be potted up or put in the ground as soon as you get them and supported until the roots grow into the soil. The only part of the plant that will grow leaves is the top. you must still remember to water the trunk at lest everyday in the summer to let the new roots the are growing from the 'live' top part a chance to take up water and to allow them to grow down. Cut it up and you're just wasting A LOT of money!

Legal or not, "extracting " such a valuable ancient plants from the nature is A CRIME! Be responsible and grow from spores, if it takes 50 years or more, soo, it is nature. You can NOT hijack old plants for your immediate profit objectives. Sorry, but you are part of the problem. Some dude attaching a piece of paper, does not make you and the digger and the seller and the permitter (some other dude in australian government!) innocent. SHAME ON YOU ALL!
