We started working in our garden...

Underneath

Indoor Tree Fern

This tree fern is too big for my office and it will be too big for the living soon.

Not the best choice for an indoor plant because Cyathea Lunalata

will grow really tall and it needs a big open space.

Just a Thought

I've been considering hibernation :)

Painting

We're over the moon with our latest buy, a painting from artist Mariës Hendriks.

We loved her work at Without a shadow of a doubt exhibition in 2014.

I think the painting blends in very well. The other art work, Words 4
from To B Here exhibition 2013, is from Mariës's husband Gerard Koek.

Growing

Our Lunulata is growing and annexing space :)

Check out our indoor tree fern one year ago here and here.

Lunulata

This is our first experiment with tree ferns indoor.

Last month was the most difficult time of the year. We're coping with scarcer
light and a much dryer atmosphere, because of the central heating, in winter.

Now we have a humidifier running a couple of hours a day.

The Cyathea lunulata is doing much better than the Dicksonia antartica.

Ferntastic

We've been repotting the new tree ferns and I already had some Ikea PS Fejö pots.

Time will tell if these plants are Nim proof :)

The current light makes it difficult to make some good pics but I'll make it up to you.

Eureka

I wanted some new indoor plants but somehow I couldn't succeed. 

Then suddenly ..... eureka!.... I thought of some indoor tree ferns.

It didn't take much effort to convince the kenderman :)

So off we went to the Tropical Centre.

We bought a Dicksonia antarctica, a Cyathea lunulata

(aka Sphaeropteris lunulata, it's Fijian name: Balabala) and a Cyathea australis.
