This tree fern is all trussed up ready for the cold weather and inevitable frosts. It would survive a normal winter without any problem but these days we seem to get such extremes of temperature so Chris isn't taking any chances. In our previous garden we lost two tree ferns, among other things, during a particularly harsh winter. and we don't want it to happen again.
This is a beautiful fern ...Wonderful that you are taking such good care of it! I had never heard of tree ferns, so I looked them up on the web and found that they are quite fascinating plants!
