Phoenix and butia after winter

So I went for a drive to the south coast to look at the maturing Phoenix and Butia there. 

Despite being a bit windswept in places they are looking quite good. Butia seeding quite heavily (tried to germinate before but no success) Phoenix have produced lots of seed too which I've collected as should provide quite cold hardy seedlings.

Looks great :D ... I'd seen pics of those in palm journals years ago. Good to see they are thriving.

Cheers, Barrie.

I'd imagine frosts are as rare as hot days around that region.

Cheers, Barrie.

Yes you would be right. With proximity to the sea any temperature above 20C and below 0C would not be common. Today it was 13C and all the palms were showing new growth
