Love the Lost Gardens of Heligan in Cornwall. Here’s something for taken on May 2019. Wishing the small tree fern in my garden looked like these. It survived the extreme UK sumner temperatures but many more frizzled fronds than usual.

@jaybaeta It’s a great place with an interesting back story. It was part of an estate that essentially became lost (hence the name), abandoned, forgotten after the First World War. Sat there, overgrown, for decades, just waiting. Then rediscovered in the 90s and restored to its full magnificence. Plenty of the tree ferns survived this neglect and have grown to an impressive size.
