Some formal info for you!
Cyathea Australi
This is a tree fern native to Australia. It's also known as the Rough Tree Fern. It grows in moist shady forest, and hopefully soon in the East Sussex countryside!
It has a stem covered with frond scars, and a mass of wiry roots at the base.
It can grow up to 12 m tall, and may reach 4 m in length, better tell the neighbours! It has a
distinctive crown that is dark green above and lighter green below, should look great.
