Really good to know, Pete. I have been spraying them daily. The temp at my windowsill is 10degrees. The room was 14 degrees this morning. I'll...
Unfortunately, the fronds of the new pant started shrivelling and dying. I'll cut them off and see what happens. Windowsills seem to be too cold...
Good news. The gardening website sent me a replacement dicksonia fern - at least I think it is as it came in a black bag labelled 'star jasmine...
Very brave of you Vince! I'm sure you'll do fine. Let's hope the weather's not too bad. I look forward to hearing all your future polytunnel news....
To be honest, I wondered if it was a live specimen too. I had expected something better. I think I'll send a pic to the garden company but, in the...
Thank you Verdun. What about watering? With mature plants the trunk is watered but this little fellow doesn't have one so I've just been spraying it.
I ordered a young tree fern - dickinsonia Antarctica - and received the one in the photo. Not sure what to do with in. Any suggestions would be...
