The Cibotium schiedei is a special tree fern that naturally grows in the humid mountain forests of Mexico and Central America.
Over time, it develops a sturdy, upright trunk. The leaves are fresh green, more finely divided than those of many other tree ferns, and spread out in a light, open crown around the trunk. Young leaves are covered with soft, golden-brown hairs, giving the plant a striking appearance.

Location
  
Light: Partial shade to shade, avoid harsh midday sun.
  
Outdoors: Best in a sheltered spot in the garden or on a patio, ideally with high humidity.

Care
  
Water: Keep the soil evenly moist, but make sure it drains well so roots don’t sit in water. Water around the base of the trunk so the root crown stays moist.
  
Soil: Use a light, humus-rich mix with good drainage.
  
Feeding: Apply a light feed once a month during the growing season (spring to late summer).
  
Winter: Not frost hardy. Protect from temperatures below about 5°C and overwinter in a frost-free place.
