Young plant in a pot

Cyathea cooperi, Sphaeropteris cooperi Family: Cyatheaceae Australian Tree fern, Hapuu Fern Origin: Australia Cyathea cooperi has a slender trunk usually about 3 - 6" thick, sometimes growing to 30' high, and puts on growth very quickly. The fronds typically will reach about 8' long on a mature specimen, but, as with most tree ferns, they will be significantly stunted if kept in a pot. It will grow well in dappled (but not deep) shade, but also does well in some sun, even in hot climates, as long as the moisture supply is adequate. It also does relatively well in exposed, windy situations. Propagation: Wind-dispersed spores. Link to this plant: http://toptropicals.com/catalog/uid/cyathea_cooperi.htm
