Now I have to plant these coconuts

 I might’ve went a little overboard at The local farmers market. I ended up picking up a dozen coconut tree starts  now I just got to figure out where to plant them all.  Not to mention all the other plants I picked up.

Obsessive compulsive behaviour, not uncommon with a lot of schizophrenics, but man you have got to get yours under control.  :) 

And go on a guerilla planting rampage around town.  :}

It is not dead, it is just senescence.

Just toss them out in the roughest parts of your property and check back in a few years. :lol: Remember the fronds will be about 20 ft. long as the palm begins to mature, so allow for space, and of course don't plant where you will park a vehicle 15 years from now. :rolleyes: Falling coconuts are tough on windshields.

 I took your advice Kim through a few in the garden and place the rest of the coconuts.

Where are they? Any pictures?

Think of them as dropping bowling balls of the future. :D

I've had several sprouted nuts float down the canal so far this year.

They seem to be growing amidst the brush. Best of luck!
