Hi,

Tried to get it noisy ? So i would let you sime palm picture's of mine. I have know 22 diffrent species of palms in my collection, but i tried to get more of it. Not everthing here is in the full ground, and there are two reasons for. The first one they don´t survive here the winters and the second the are to small.

So here some pics of some palms of mine :) I hope you would like them :) It's June now and we are in the second Heat wave, so the palms grow really fast, yesterday it was 35,6 C, that's very hot for the netherlands.

At the end of this growing season i came with pictures again oke ?

For me now, i'm gonna collect more palms that can grow here in the full ground, like more trachycarpus species. And a new one Butia eriospatha, brahea, and maybe some more sabal species.

I hope you like the photo's :)

I like the phoenix also, it was a expirement some years ago, but know it's a palm here in the garden that takes his space :)

In winter time he get's some protection to keep everthing dry.

Why you can't find a trachy of that size ?? The trachy's are getting more and more here. A lot of people want a palm, and the prices go up here because it's look like become a trend here...

Some people go know for Trachycarpus wagnerianus ...

Trachys are the hardest thing to find up here in New York..... I can find just about everything else....go figure.... Same reason I have to buy Bamboo on the web - probably because both of them will grow here and then everyone will be planting them in the ground - The nurseries around here are really old-fasioned "purists" and they don't want to see Long Island turn into the tropics - they haven't heard from me yet. :)

Greenhand,

I think your summers are more hotter then here, wait i'm for sure. The summers here can be very strang, one moment we have a heat wave with tempetures around the 30-35C, the other moment it can be 20C and raining. Last year it was a very bad summer with low tempetures and a lot of rain. This year we have a good summer ! June was very dry with high tempetures, July is for know also very dry and a lot of sun and high tempetures. By day time the expected the next coming 2 weeks no lower then 25C. I have recorded the highest tempeture in the garden 2 weeks ago. I was then 35,4 C.

Your summers are hot and dry i know ?

That's also a reason why the sabals don't grow very well here, after a winter a lot of damage most of the time ...
