Digging up a tree fern. Cyathea brownii.

I am pleased you have saved it Stan it looks great in its new place.

Thanks Penny. A lot of years in that plant.

I watched an (old) gardening make over this afternoon and they had four or five really BIG tree ferns. Wondered how the owners would cope with them all over Winter. A neighbour has just one and it is covered with "stuff" all through the Winter months.

Yours looks nice and seems to be in a comparatively sheltered spot(?)

I bet it did Stan I hope it does well now. At least being in a pot you can move it about the garden.

I watched that program to Eirlys thought the same. I thought the program was a newish program .

One thing about Tree ferns Eirlys is that they are near sun loving it turns out. I should have planted it in a much more open area. Even full sun is not too much as long as its not that hot reflecting sunlight bouncing off a wall.
The large tree fern in the photo is Cyathea medullaris,what is without a doubt the large tree fern we can grow in the bay area. It becomes very palm like.
For me they are hardy, luckily enough.

It looks a lot happier in its new position.

I think so waddy. Just in the nick of time.
