Dicksonia Antarctica is an evergreen, terrestrial tree fern, deciduous in colder areas, with black woody trunk covered with soft reddish hairs. Large, roughly textured, deeply divided, gracefully arching, dark green, tripinnate fronds form a large and beautiful canopy. Dicksonia tree ferns are some of the oldest plants in the world. Dicksonia Antarctica grows best in loose, organically rich, slightly acidic, consistently moist, well-drained soils. It thrives on partial to full shade. Its natural habitat is beneath the tree canopy of mature forests. It is tolerant of light frost and needs to be sheltered from strong winds. Very easy to grow. Generally, pest free and disease-free. Low maintenance plant, doesn’t require pruning. Australian tree fern is a wonderful, exotic-looking, architectural tree, spectacular as a specimen plant in home gardens or parks. In colder climates, it can be planted in containers and brought inside during the winter. Perfect for Mediterranean gardens, green houses and conservatives.
