Gardening on a small plot with an oak tree in one corner and trying to encourage more wildlife. Love visiting gardens and buying plants too!

#fern Love the fronds on this, it's grown quite a bit this year and is a constant reminder of family in New Zealand 💚. Enjoy your day everyone.

Thanks everyone, I'd definitely have more if only I had room - my daughter in law has 12 in her NZ garden! @pelly @debs69 @kez001uk @Auricula

Thanks Christine, I see you've added it to your wishlist which is lovely, just be aware it will need some winter protection up north - some horticultural fabric or straw in the crown and the trunk and leaves wrapped in horticultural fabric. I managed to get away without wrapping my leaves last year but I think I'm several hundred miles south of you! @midnightgardener

#newfoliagefriday Just done some watering and discovered two new fronds unfurling on the tree fern! Hubby and daughter amused at how excited I am - told them I will share the news with people who do understand! 🌴🌴

So jealous! Mine's still a baby, only got 6 fronds. Do you wrap/cover yours in the winter? I wrapped it last year as it was new but not sure if I should keep doing that.
