Dicksonia antarctica is a tree fern from Australia, which can grow up to 10 meters in nature. Indoors or on the balcony it reaches no higher than one meter. Araflora sells various sizes. This fern can also be placed in the garden or on the balcony when it isn'T freezing. The brown main stem is formed by an intertwining of the leaves' stems. From the main stem, the leaves fan out in all directions.
The Australian tree-fern, Dicksonia antarctica, is a unique plant to cultivate. This exotic plant thrives not indoors but mainly in the garden, on the terrace or on a balcony. It can stand temperatures to circa minus 6°Celsius [42.8F], so this exotic fern is not sufficiently hardy to withstand our Dutch winters. If it freezes, this plant should be moved to a frost-proof place. In case you still want to keep the plant outdoors, you should take steps to protect the plant by wrapping it in bubblewrap and straw. The Dicksonia Antarctica needs a lot of water which must be poured from the top in between the accretion of the leaves, so that the stem of the tree-fern stays moist. A spot in half shadow or indirect sunlight suits this tree-fern. An Araflora substrate with a lot of organic building material and nutrition is the right potting soil for the Dicksonia antarctica.
