@lovemygarden65 I thought it was just me all my ferns have been a bit slow i did have it planted in a pocket under my decking and it was really happy but i done away with where it was and put it in a pot till i was ready to replant it. id just put it down to moving it being the reason it wasn’t performing this year .. so im not the only ☝️ 👍🏽💎🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

@lovemygarden65 also because they have been so slow i thought id get a specific fern feed for them normally i just use flower power on them but the tree fern feed i got has definitely helped before they where all looking rather green and since using it the foliage colours have improved greatly as before i could not id them one from another and ny tree ferns are loving it too.👍🏽💎🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿
