A couple of weeks ago I ordered a Cythea Cooperi Tree Fern online from Ireland as I have been fawning over having one for the last year. Its a lovely looking Tree Fern alot slimmer than a Dicksonia Antartica which was what I was considering getting first. What swung it though was that the Cyathea can in ideal conditions grow up to a foot a year! So I got one. However the postman tried to deliver it when I was not in and I had to reorganise delivery, not ideal. The postman then came again when I was in, but fast asleep after working a night shift and I didn't hear a thing. Finally this morning a good week and a half from the first delivery attempt it was here and I was awake and alive to receive it. I had pretty much resigned myself to the fact that it was dead or as good as! And the £10 spent on it was gone. So I opened the package expecting the very worst scenario, a dry wilted bashed about ghost of a plant, to my utter joy the bloody thing looks in perfect condition!!
I will let it now sit on the window sill to reCOOPERIrate (see what I did there) for a little while.
