FAST GROWING, CAN GET TALLER
The Australian Tree Fern in native to several areas on the eastern side of Australia. It is a faster growing tree fern that can get to a height of over forty feet. The two photos from my garden in San Diego show potential height. I have several with twenty-five feet of trunk. I’m about 8 miles from the ocean and they take my sun fairly well. Trunks can get up to twelve inches thick although most are more thin. This species is a bigger alternative to the Tasmanian Tree Fern and has a thicker trunk and longer leaves. This species tolerates coastal sun or part day sun. It is cold hardy into the upper twenties or lower. We’re putting very tall 15 gallon on sale. This size is shown in the first six photos. These plants are more like a boxed size specimen tree. The 8th photo below is by Plantlust Website and the last picture is by TS at RPS.
