Transplanting Nannorrhops ritchiana


Alberto

Recommended Posts

Today I visited a nursery (VPA in Porto Amazonas , st Paraná in south Brazil) which has a lot of Nannorops ritchiana, but planted in the ground. They seem to be tricky to transplant. Does somebody have positive experience transplanting this palm? Thanks!

I transplanted a small 1 gallon from an area I changed my mind about. It was in the ground for about a year. No problems.

I tried to move one that was about 5' tall… did not do well (croaked)… not sure if it was the move or the climate I moved it to (super windy and dry)… anyway, want to try one again, but will try a potted plant next time.

Mine is looking like it's going to die too. Grrrrrr. What a waste of $$$$
