I'm a gardener, not a photographer; with a cheapo camera, in the wind. Grown from seed, planted about 28 yrs. ago. My mother's backyard. Plus one more. Hamamelis virginiana. "He looked into the garden with an intensity that studies rather than sees." Victor Hugo/Les Miserables (1862)
Well I think your photographs show the tree in all its glory. Keep taking those pictures and sharing them with us.
Philip... I'm not sure those are ferns, they look like Sega Palms to me. But I've been wrong once or twice before! :-D
new species of fern discovered Your fern is Cycas revoluta (sago palm). Though there is fern in the picture. (thylipteris normalis-common shield fern)
Very nice display,..those Palms are very impressive,..as are those Ferns,..in my garden i have several Ferns,..alas nothing like yours,..i have to give marks to Cheryl for looking into the picture and identifying the Palms.
Philip... I only recognized them because I help keep my aunt's ones trimmed back. Plus I just moved one of my own out of the way since it didn't appear to survive our two whole days of winter. And then I've been keeping a close eye on my other one.
Hi Cheryl, oh i wouldn't mind having one,..i have an idea with Ferns,..hoping to get a PVC large pipe about four foot high,.. stand it upright and plant Ferns in each pipe,..it would look like a Tree Fern .
