You need someone who can tell one tree fern from another, not sure who that would be, Sandra maybe, might be worth sending her a PM.

Looks like a Trachycarpus to me, it's not a tree fern but one of the Chusan palms

Aha !

Looks like Trachycarpus Fortunii to me, as Bamboo has already identified. Its very hardy up here, i didnt protect mine for the first time last winter! and it sailed through..

Yep, tough as old boots, hardiest palm in the UK.

Hi, definitely a trachy, but Ithink you have it planted too close to the fence, the leaves have a 3ft stem, and a 3-4ft spread so the leaves at the back of the plant will be restricted. regards derekm.
