How fast do tree ferns grow?

Date:

Tree ferns grow very slowly.  They typically grow about one inch per year (2.5cm). This is why it’s best to buy the biggest you can afford. If you are very young then maybe buy a small fern, but if you are ‘middle aged’ then you are not going to live long enough to see it at a decent height!
