Stephen Ryan’s Dicksonia invites gardeners and nature lovers into the lush world of tree ferns, blending practical advice with Australian horticultural know-how. This first-edition hardcover, illustrated by Craig Lidgerwood, pairs clear how-to guidance with rich visuals that celebrate these ancient plants.

The 2008 Hyland House release is a concise 138-page reference, ideal for both hobbyists seeking inspiration and students needing reliable data on cool-climate ferns. Clean pages and crisp imagery make browsing enjoyable, while the sturdy binding suits frequent trips to the greenhouse or library.

An earlier owner has inscribed the front paper, adding a personal touch without affecting readability; the preface shows light thumbing but the remaining pages are unmarked and free of dog-ears. Overall the copy presents in acceptable-to-good shape, ready for the next enthusiast’s shelf.

Collectors of Australian gardening books, fans of Stephen Ryan, and anyone searching for an illustrated guide to Dicksonia species will appreciate this accessible edition.
