Fern tree problem

Hi all,
See attached pics. My fern tree is in real trouble and I think it’s probably dead but any advice much appreciated.

Many thanks
Paul

 

It looks like a conifer that has reached a critical point, possibly due to lack of water. I’m sorry to say that I don’t think it has a future.

 

Looks like an old christmas tree.

 

lol tree fern that’s the best joke this year

 

Probably a spruce, Spruce.

 

I think it's a typo fern instead of fir (damn phones)
However it's still dead or nearly so.

 

Hello,
It does look quite terminal. I hope giving it more water will help but those lower branches won't come back. Maybe the top will be will survive and you could plant a garden around it's base to make it look purposeful. Even a little tropical?

 

conifers are bizzarely fickle in human cultivation, but in the wild can grow on rock
