My next investment is a tree fern. There’s a shady area in my garden that would be perfect. Also looking to add a tetrapanex too for more height and leaf interest.

tetrapanex
One of my favorites. Mine is only a year or so old and has been struggling a bit in the drought, but I love how it looks so jungly and alien and yet still manages to blend well with other more normal things.
Monty did a feature in one of his shows, of a garden in Venice, that had a recurring theme of tetrapanax underplanted with hydrangea limelight. Sounds like it wouldn't work at all but it looked amazing
Mine in amongst an elder and euphorbia mellifera and various other overgrown things...

Did somebody say tree fern?
I picked this up from Columbia Road about 6 years ago, for the princely sum of £120.
I've been looking for a Tetrapanex for a year now but with no luck.

Doesnt have to be now, I think some more shrubs to add a bit more height/structure, then next year plant some perrenials?
I think the problem is the garden doesn't get much partial shade, which is the vibe I want.
