Tasmanian tree ferns HELP

(1/3) > >>

Lisa Marie Claire:
I hang my head in shame :( i have successfully kept tree ferns for six years and i love them! However the freezing winter seems to have murdered them- could they comeback to life in time does anyone know?  They are big :(
Can anyone make any revival suggestions.....please
Many thanks

Maggi Young:
Hi Lisa,
 This winter has meant the death of a lot of tree ferns in the UK and Scotland in particular. 

I strongly suspect they may be dead but don't be in too much of a hurry to dipose of the bodies.... there is always a tiny hope that a wee shoot will emerge from the centre of the plant.... give them another couple of months before arranging the funeral.  :P ::)

How is your "green" roof doing?

Lisa Marie Claire:
My sedum roof is looking fantastic thank-you maggie :)
Well my tree ferns wont be disposed of as i will let them decompose in the garden if they do not come back to life, i really hope they do though as im gutted at loosing them! Was going to wait till next year to pronounce them dead!
I need fences put up and i need some landscaping done in my garden- do u know anyone good?
;-)


 

Lisa Marie Claire:
If only i could check for a pulse or just ask them!! Soo frustrating not being able to tell :'(

Maggi Young:
Lisa, I don't think I know of anyone who would be able to help you right now.... but if I hear of someone with not enough work, I'll let you know.  8)
