anyone have any of these? 5 gallon size or larger? Please let me know. this winter has forced me into looking for palms I normally wouldn't even consider, but it seems apparent I have little choice.

Look who's resurfaced...and here I thought I scared you off for good with that last post. I'm glad you've built up the courage to start up the snark again. However, when the going gets tough, and i bring out my a-game responses to your meager attempts at humor, are you going to go running to big brother Randy again? I don't want to get another phone call from him telling me I'd better take it easy on you, because you're just an old guy well past his prime, and your better days are behind you, --

Beaumont, some of my favorite cold hardy palms that have done well up here are Jubaeopsis caffra, Brahea elegans, Livistona decora and Phoenix rupicola. Three of those are as far as I want to push it in my area, and it kind of sounds like you're getting about the same lows as us Northern Californians.

Good luck in your search.

Solid zone 9, I can expect at least one night in the mid to low twenties every year.

Hot, dry summers. Cold, wet winters.
