Australian Tree Fern (Cyathea cooperi)

Australian Tree Fern is a true tree fern, a single fibrous trunk ringed with oval leaf scars and topped with a crown of long, lacy, feathery fronds. It is fast growing and low maintenance for a plant this dramatic, eventually reaching 15 to 25 feet where it has the room, though it arrives to you as a young, manageable specimen in a nursery pot. Give it partial to full shade and it fills a corner, sunroom, or shaded patio with a scale and texture no small fern can match. See our full fern collection for more textured growers, and read our guide on growing ferns for general care tips. Choose your size at checkout, a 6 or 8 inch nursery pot, shipped potted and ready to grow.
