Good sized plants. The one is for sure a presto and the other the JD Andersen “Malcomberi” - which it was sold as, but isn’t that plant. Whatever it is, the palm grows great here once established and is a very pretty palm. Unlike Orange Crush - which I find difficult to grow well.

So what would your guess be on the one labeled orange crush Len? How about pilulifera ?

Not sure. It does go somewhat irregular leaf as it ages  have you seen the pics of Matt Ps here?

Also should these go in the ground or should I pot them up? They both need one or the other lots of roots busting the pots

My opinion is the sooner they are planted in the ground, the sooner they will trunk.

They are already pretty sizeable, why would you want to restrict their roots?

 Expanding roots in mother earth seems like a good thing.

Plant them.  The "malcomberi" look like it might be pushing a small leaf?

Definitely get that Presto in the ground! It's ready for sure. I think it would be good to add a small shade structure for the hot inland sun until it grows a few leaves.

I'm pretty sure I know the source. And if memory serves they were growing in lots of shade. That's why they are a bit stretched out.

 

nice score Chris. I'm sure you got a good deal ;)

Both of these are at the size they are ready to plant! As noted some temporary lite shade would help..The presto type is at the size that it needs almost no special planting notes. Unless you are definite you have superior draing soil, I would err to the side of planting that malcomberi type on the higher/mound side.  Congrats again!

Zone 10a at best after 2007 AND 2013, on SW facing hill, 1 1/2 miles from coast in Oceanside, CA. 30-98 degrees, and 45-80deg. about 95% of the time.

I do some experiments and learning in my garden with palms so you don't have to experience the pain! Look at my old threads to find various observations and tips!

Thanks everyone ! So no frost In my area josh atleast the last 2 years haven't even got close lowest I seen so far was 40 degrees . My biggest problem out here is going to be hot riverside sun. I'm also at a higher elevation which I think helps me out a lot
