How to safely plant a soakaway?
Charlie Pridham wrote:
They form a mat of roots near the surface, but sadly I suspect you are too cold for an open position planting, Well, we've had a dozen frosts so far since autumn, so yes that's not quite the natural environment of the tree-fern. Most of the tree-ferns I have seen, in Queensland and in New Zealand, have been growing beneath the canopy provided by tall trees in forests, so that they don't get sunlight directly upon them. It would be a pity to buy a couple of expensive big tree-ferns, only to see them come a cropper in the winter. So, that suggests seeing how big non-tree ferns can be. I guess lots of ordinary-height ferns with maybe a clump or two of gunneras could look good. And if they all flop in winter, oh well that's the British garden for you. Glory in spring and summer: death in winter! Thanks for the bamboo suggestion. The previous owner has had a go at it on the other side of my septic tank. Trouble is he planted a variety that loses all its leaves in winter. Anyway, a lawnful of bamboo would be without context and rather "too much" I think for this property surrounded by typically English fields. Eddy. |

wrote: Thanks, Sacha. Ferns do well in this area, the hedgerows harbour them, and there are several big clumps on the border of my soakaway-lawn already. I know they erupt from big fleshy "pods" - with delicate roots on the underside of these. I wonder if these hair-like roots WOULD penetrate a few feet if they sensed the moisture beneath? I like the idea of several groups of tree-ferns, in twos and threes of different heights, with lots of more ordinary ferns inbetween and scattered around. This would look less "unkempt" than a wildflower lawn - which, anyway, I believe needs to be mown and maintained if the wildflowers are not to be overtaken by the grasses. I had a go at wildflower garden at another property, in West Wales, a couple of years ago, and the first year it was beautiful. Despite cutting it as advised in autumn, the next year it was predominantly buttercupt - magnificently buttercups for several weeks in fact, and by the third year only one or two individual wildflower plants had managed to stand the competition from ranunculus and grasses! Eddy. I think wildflower lawns are things of great beauty but it's not just a question of chucking in some seeds, no. They do need a particular regime of care, AIUI. Charlie seems to think tree ferns wouldn't like your climate but I wonder if they'd survive if wrapped in straw for the winter. Sally who has just waved to you from Ludlow might know, or your local nursery. Otherwise, it might be as well to make a virtue out of necessity and see what you can find in the way of ferns that you like. Googling around, I found these people but this isn't a recommendation because I've never had any dealings with them. Their range is pretty large, though and they have a special 'Ferns for wet places' section, too and comments on how to cope with tree ferns in the UK climate. The Equisetums sound interesting: http://www.fernnursery.co.uk/ -- Sacha http://www.hillhousenursery.co.uk South Devon (remove weeds from address) 'We do not inherit the earth from our ancestors, we borrow it from our children.' |

I bookmarked that site a year ago while exploring Lincolnshire where my family hails from. They give some noteworthy advice with regard to tree-ferns on one of their pages: in the heat of the UK summer don't go two days without watering the whole tree, bark & crown included; and in winter wrap it against the cold. Now, I'll tell you a secret: we left our "paradise" in West Wales because it was "a terrible beauty", i.e. stunning gardens that had to be maintained intensively and doing so nearly killed us! Ain't going down that path again. I think keeping a tree-fern in our situation would be like taking on an exotic pet. But that still leaves the idea of a collection of reasonably big ferns. If I can just find one or two things that will give greater height, that would be good. Have just found a site that suggests that gunneras need "deep" soil, so it looks like they're going to have to be rejected. On the other hand, have just found a couple of pdf files in the USA specifically talking about what to plant in a "leach-field" or soakaway, and they advise "any shallow-rooted herbaceous plants that are NOT water-loving". So I'll try googling that! Eddy. Eddy. |

Mind you, if rhubarb was resilient and evergreen, i.e. it looked good all through the year, it would fit the bill! Eddy. Try the giant rhubarb, the inedible one! Gunnera manicata http://tinyurl.com/2rd8mr I've got one of those! Magnificent plants. Mine dies down after the first heavy frost and is now covered in fleece until Spring. I bought it in a 4" pot. The first year it didn't grow much, so last Spring I moved it to a place that is permanently wet and it is thriving. Just a bit disconcerting when the frosts knock it back to the ground - there is always the fear that it may not recover. There is a garden centre near us that has a monster sized specimen. I think they said it was 20 something years old. Do they still need Winter protection when they have fully matured? Ours is a good two to three feet over Ray's head and he's about 6'1". He just puts the old leaves over the crown each year but it's probably important to say that ours has some shelter from a wall and from tree canopy. It dies back naturally, with or without frost. And of course, it's in the south west. But while its spread has been a bit restricted by the things around it, its height appears to know few bounds! -- Sacha http://www.hillhousenursery.co.uk South Devon (remove weeds from address) 'We do not inherit the earth from our ancestors, we borrow it from our children.' |

In those conditions most lawns would need cutting each week, I would think. Six times does indeed indicate a thorough approach. ;-) I must admit that I usually know within 30 seconds whether I like a house or not and then I've done another visit if I do, then the "has it got dry rot or a collapsing roof" survey thing and then bought it.

I have failed with it in every garden I've ever had, wherever situated.

They have a real wow factor when they are that size. The first one I ever saw was in a private garden next to Warwick castle around 20 years ago. I think it may have been one of those Yellow-book open garden days. I remember walking under it's canopy of huge leaves absolutely awe struck. Since then I always wanted one. This is the first place we've lived where the garden is big enough to handle one (without it dominating the entire garden). I'll continue each year with the leaf folding and fleece to be on the safe side. I'd hate to lose it. -- David in Normandy |

You've saved me, and perhaps others, sitting there in front of the screen typing in the gobbledegook and being flummoxed by the results. I think I'll even post your corrections back to that website. They ought to be glad of them. I just hope that because they can't spell 'em, it doesn't mean it's not the ideal list for a soakaway! I'll have to be careful! Thanks. Eddy. |
