Cyathea baileyana also known as the wig tree fern is a species of tree fern native to northeastern Queensland in Australia where it grows in wet gullies and forest at an altitude of 850-1200 m. It is a rare species that is seldom found in the wild. The erect trunk is 4-5 m tall approximately 10 cm in diameter and may be covered in stipe bases in the upper regions. C. baileyana is notable for being able to develop offshoots from the base of the trunk.
