Picked this up at sale.  It's a Maypan (no talls were available).  Easily the biggest coconut I've ever seen.  The basketball next to it is a full size, official 29.5" basketball.

I'm tempted...

I'd be curious to know how their palms did this winter too, the data I recorded shows they had 26f in January.

They open at 10am on Sunday, so that's my target time unless that time is an issue for either of you.
