The Dicksonia antarctica is a tree-fern from Australia. In the wild can grow some 10 metres high, but indoors or on a balcony its maximum height is no more than one metre. Araflora has various sizes Dicksonia antarctica for sale. Except when it freezes this fern can be outdoors in the garden or on a balcony. The stem is made up out of the intertwining stalks of the leaves and is brown in colour. The leaves themselves fan out from the stem on all sides.
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.
