I failed with them as house plants too .. but I had a special place in my heart for ferns in the woods since I was a kid .. I fell head over heels in love with them and never forgot that wonderful fresh clean scent .. My "Log" fern after about 5 years has really come into its own .. it is BIG and beautiful this year .. now if I can get the rest of that area looking as good ? hahaCanadianGardenJoyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18130452541076704075noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-726816697009103332.post-91159318316267018312008-09-07T09:41:00.000-04:002008-09-07T09:41:00.000-04:00So beautiful, Joy!

I bought a new camera last winter .. technically does that initiate you having to buy a fern retrodated last winter ?<BR/>What brand of camera did you buy because those pictures are great !<BR/>The bed spring thing .. I was horribly gashed by a rouge spring that must have been in hiding for a while .. the domino affect was a stounding .. not only two new mattress sets .. but two new bedroom furniture sets happened in the fall out .. now how is that for being a "woman" with a mission ?

I have a soft spot for these types of ferns .. and I thought a few different cultivars would look rather eye catching in my shady nook .. maybe your ferns got a bit too dry or a bit toomuch sun ?

I just visited your place (and you could use some of these Japanese ferns !!) haha<BR/>Your new format is looking very good .. and those flower pictures are so clear and vibrant .. you take stunning pictures and I am jealous ?
