Join me as I plant a tree fern trunk into the jungle clearing area of our UK tropical jungle gardening and go through all the main care methods to keep these amazing tropical foliage plants happy and healthy in our climate. It's a bit longer video today and I cover where and when to plant a Dicksonia Antartica tree fern trunk in your exotic garden, how much shade a tree fern needs the right soil for it, how to water and feed your tree fern, how I prune the old fern fronds, when how to protect your tree fern overwinter as well as a general look at hardiness and the kinds of exotic or woodland shade plants I grow around tree ferns. It's worth planting these before the tree fern roots create a dense mat around it! So a packed video with loads of info that'll hopefully help you with any tree fern problems, if you've bought a tree fern trunk this spring or are looking to add one to your garden this year. I've put some links to the fertilisers and feeds I use below as well as go through the topics covered in the video:
