hese two ferns have slightly different care requirements, but both prefer conditions that mimic their native shady, humid environments.

Here is a general care guide for Tree Fern, Silver Lady Fern – Plant :

Feature	Tree Fern (e.g., Dicksonia antarctica)	Silver Lady Fern (Blechnum gibbum ‘Silver Lady’)
Light	Shade to Bright, Filtered Light. They thrive in a sheltered, shady spot. Avoid direct, intense sun as it will scorch the fronds. Can tolerate gentle morning sun.	Bright, Indirect Light. Indoors, an east or north-facing window is ideal. Outdoors, partial shade. Avoid direct midday sun.
Water	Heavy and Consistent. The trunk (if present) and crown should be kept damp, especially in hot weather. Water regularly to keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged.	Consistently Moist Soil. Water when the top $1$ inch of soil feels slightly dry. Do not let the soil dry out completely, or the fronds will brown and wilt.
Humidity	High. They love humidity. Misting the trunk and surrounding area, especially in dry or hot conditions, is beneficial.	High. Appreciates misting, a pebble tray, or placement in a naturally humid room like a bathroom or kitchen, especially when grown indoors.
Soil	Humus-rich, well-draining, slightly acidic to neutral. For container plants, use a peat-free ericaceous or good quality houseplant mix with added organic matter.	Well-draining, rich in organic matter (standard potting mix is usually fine, or a fern-specific mix).
Temperature	Prefers a cool, sheltered location. The common Dicksonia antarctica is frost-tolerant but needs winter protection for the crown in freezing temperatures (e.g., packing with straw or bracken).	Prefers $60^{circ}text{F}$ to $75^{circ}text{F}$ ( $15^{circ}text{C}$ to $24^{circ}text{C}$ ). Not frost-tolerant. If grown outdoors in cooler zones, treat as a houseplant during winter.
Fertilizer	Feed from mid-spring to mid-summer. Apply a diluted liquid feed to the fronds and trunk monthly, or use a controlled-release fertilizer around the base in spring.	Feed monthly during the growing season (spring and summer) with a balanced liquid fertilizer diluted to half strength. Reduce or stop in fall/winter.
Pruning	Only remove old, dead, or damaged fronds. Let older fronds hang down near the trunk as they would naturally to help retain humidity.	Remove yellowed or damaged fronds at the base to keep the plant neat and encourage new growth.

Key takeaway for both:

Avoid Direct Sun: Both will suffer from scorched fronds in direct, hot sunlight.
Keep Moist: Both require consistently moist soil and appreciate high humidity.
Protection: The Tree Fern needs frost protection in winter, and the Silver Lady Fern needs to be kept in warmer temperatures (move indoors if needed).
