Hello, i visited your nursery earlier today, i have to tell you: i was seriously impressed, both with the friendly knowledgeable helpful Lady who was there serving me, and with the carload of plants i bought. I love my new cherry and apricot trees, my new blackberry bush and the amazing more than a tray load of olde worlde herbs i bought. I might not be able to visit often due to the 145 mile distance but i will certainly be back sometime. Thank You very Much. :) Colin

Resurrection Plant
Selaginella lepidophylla
- 'Springs' to life in just 24 hours.
- Great for people who aren't good with looking after plants!
Supplied as a dried tennis ball sized plant.
This Product is Available Now.1 or more £3.95GBP each. Group & quantity discounts
In less than 24 hours this apparently lifeless and dead in appearance 'ball' of shrivelled up fern leaves will burst into vivid green growth! Truly a miracle of nature and one could say a living fossil! This plant has survived since it first evolved in the Cambrian Period of Earth's creation 570 million years ago - and like all life forms developed from algae.
Kept in its dry 'dead' state (as we dispatch it) it will remain so until you place it upside down for half an hour in a small bowl of water - yes the dead looking roots uppermost. After half an hour turn it up the other way in the bowl and place on a well lit window sill position. Within 24 hours it comes alive! You can keep it like this (in a bowl of water) or pot up into moist growing medium. Let it dry out if you wish and it will curl up into the dried up ball as you received. It will re-awaken in a few days if you repeat the procedure or similarly you could leave it for a week, a year, 10 years or even longer!
Great for people who aren't so great with plants!
