4. Discover prehistoric plants
Learn about prehistoric plants such as the Cibotium barometz (Golden Chicken Fern) (above, left). In the past, the fine, golden hairs that distinguish this fern were applied to wounds to stop bleeding. Today, Cibotium barometz is popular in gardens and collections.
Favouring moist gullies and valleys in Eastern Australia, the feathery foliage of Dicksonia Antarctica (Tasmanian Tree Fern) (above, right) shelters an abundance of ferns and mini orchids. Despite their preference for humid places, mature ferns are wildfire tolerant.
