	Dicksonia antarctica
		This species is probably the largest of the Dicksonias, occasionally reaching the incredible height of around 50' (though 20' is more usual), with a trunk that can be a couple feet in diameter or more if given enough moisture, and a life span of up to 400 years.
		Dicksonia antarctica, like most temparate treefern species, seems to vary in its hardiness according to the provenance from which it originated.

		Dicksonia antarctica puts out more under ground roots than people realise, it may not a be a full system but they put out enough to give the trunk a good hold in the soil, and after a few years its a good size root ball.
		It is not enough for the plant to survive on the moisture and feed absorbed by the 'trunk roots' alone.
		Dicksonia antarctica stumps will always re-grow significant root mats if given the room, devouring the organic matter in their compost at a frightening rate.

	Dicksonia squarrosa
		Name - Dicksonia squarrosa otherwise known as brown tree fern or Wheki (Maori), is one of New Zealand's national tree ferns.
		The word Dicksonia is taken from James Dickson, a Scottish botanist (1738-1822).
		Care Tips - As a general rule ferns thrive well in a cool, bright lit area and in high humidity, with a minimum temperature of 10ºC/50ºF. They also need frequent watering and plenty of light, but should be kept away from direct sunlight and draughts.

		Dicksonia Squarrosa is a hardy New Zealand native tree fern and grows a tall, slender, brown trunk up to approx 6m high.
		The fronds, reaching 1.5 — 3m in length (much smaller than Cyathea varieties), are quite crisp to touch and form a small “umbrella” on top of the trunk.
		Dicksonia squarrosa has been succesfully re-grown in the EU and the USA after exporting from New Zealand

	The problem with Cyatheas
		Here are some New Year's day photos of Cyathea cooperi and Dicksonia antarctica showing the Dicksonia's superior adaptability with regard to winter dormancy.
		I should mention that I don't think the winter fronding of C. cooperi is necessarily the standard for the genus.
		We have a guy on the UK Oasis moving to New Zealand soon and he is selling up and I am going on a round trip of probably 400 miles to pick up a trunked Cyathea dealbata and Dicksonia sellowiana C.gleichenioides but unfortunately probably cannot get his 6 foot trunked Cyathea australis in my car.

	Cyathea australis
		In the wild it inhabits moist mountain areas in Victoria, New South Wales, and Queensland, and is often found growing in the company of Dicksonia antarctica but preferring more sunny open spots.
		In Australia it grows in more exposed sites than Dicksonia antarctica and is potentially as hardy although developing fronds appear somewhat more sensitive to frost.
		In the colder parts of Ireland winter protection of the trunk is recommended and as with all Tree Ferns the crown should be filled with straw, leaves or as in my case pine needles.
