Glad to see they are doing well. I’ve moved a few ostrich ferns this week to a small berm in our yard to try to get them to start populating there. They seem to spread a lot, so with any hopes, I’ll also have a fern “hillside” in maybe 5-10 years. :)
I’m sure your ostrich ferns will do well. If you experience the kind of second-year growth I’m seeing, it will be much shorter than 5-10 years. Of course, having the ferns covered for much of the winter seems to have given them a fast start this spring. Have a good weekend, Mark!
I am glad you are still here and enjoying your efforts with the ferns. Seems to be something about watching the slow, deliberate process of nature that comforts us. And, maybe those ferns enjoy having you involved in their lives. And, if you’re so inclined keep posting images. Hope the best for your transplant, Mark!!

Yelp, it’s always lovely to awaken each morning to find I might have another day to enjoy!
