TREE FERN

The first two photos were taken of my tree fern last January 2011, when snow was especially heavy and strong.

To protect the tree fern, my husband wrapped its trunk with one of my old thick woolen jackets. This seems to have done the trick as my tropical plant has continued to grow and spout healthy fronds.

During the summer the tree fern unfurls its leaves and do a good job of showing lovely verdant foliage which gives a lovely backdrop to summer flowers.
