Looking for dicksonia antarctica

16 years ago

Hello I am going to be in Miami and key west next week and I was wondering if anyone knows where I could find a Dicksonia antarctica ( tasmanian tree fern ) in the area? I am looking for one with a couple feet of trunk and info would be appreciated! Email me if you have some info

Are you sure you have to go to Miami to get one? I purchased mine in Pennsylvania. Hope you have better luck with yours than me. I don't know why but mine doesn't grow. Which is why I prefer the Australian tree fern (which does grow for me). The advantage of the antarctica is that it can take colder temps and more direct sun. Good luck!
