My recuperation/post-propagation house. The first floor has young Dicksonia antarctica on it as they like the shade and protection from wind, the second layer has Wisteria sinensis 'Alba' on it. They were outside until today but due to the fairly constant heavy rain recently they have become heavily waterlogged, so today i top dressed them all and placed them in the shelter where they will be allowed to dry out for a week or two before being watered heavily but infrequently.
My aim in life, at the moment, is to one day open my own specialist plant nursery, mainly selling native trees, shrubs and ferns. For a number of years now i have been buying and trading for seed and plants that will help me accomplish this. For instance, i recently purchased 10x 1 year old Dicksonia antarctica. Our house has a balcony and for a while now this has been my territory for propagation and potting on. Today i did a lot of tidying up and thinning out, no before pictures as it was a real mess.
