We recently acquired a small fern tree that didn鈥檛 survive the blistering heat of our Australian summer.
Nevertheless I persisted and kept watering it, and eventually despite the plant completely withering dry, it still managed to push up a brand new shoot. This is a great illustration of a positive attitude to life - never give up! If at first you don鈥檛 succeed, pick yourself up and try again! 馃挭馃徎
