Juania Australis in the British Isles

I thought that Juania was on the cites appendices but apparently it's not, so you maybe right 👍. -

Cutting the end of Canary palm leaf?
aztropic replied to GMann's topic in DISCUSSING PALM TREES WORLDWIDE
I would just cut it off at the base. Removing 1 frond off a Phoenix palm isn't going to hurt anything. aztropic Mesa, Arizona -

Coincidentally, "po" is a Celtic word, as is the one who writes it. In the United Kingdom, there are Juania australis palms. They are very clever to already have large, mature palms. It's a shame they lack a female to produce seeds. A distinguished Irish gentleman contacted me. I suggested he try to obtain a female palm from Chile. If it went well, the United Kingdom will one day supply the world with Juania australis seeds. -

I'm from England yeah. I don't really know Chilean Spanish. Solo sé que dicen po un poco como los mexicanos dicen wey. Maybe we'll get British Jaunia seeds one day if the botanical gardens collaborate, I doubt they'll be made public though. Estuve una vez a la frontera entre Bolivia y Chile, cerca de dos volcanes. No me acuerdo sus nombres. -

Hey friend, are you from England? I see you know Chilean Spanish. Juania australis is even more of a forbidden palm. Even I had trouble getting them. I'll be receiving another batch of seeds from the island soon. I hope to put them to good use. -

Que pena, but I understand why they are protected. Una bendición tenerlas en tu propio país. Atleast with jubaea plenty exist in other countries. -
Cutting the end of Canary palm leaf?
GMann replied to GMann's topic in DISCUSSING PALM TREES WORLDWIDE
I don’t want to give the HOA any possible reason to complain. So I definitely want to trim that leaf, the question is where? At the base? Or the tip? I only am concerned with the health of the palm, not the aesthetics. -

It won't even notice, you might though, watch for the spikey leaflets they're like needles -

It's a shame Chile is so strict about selling seeds. Otherwise, I would have already given them some Juania Australis seeds. Furthermore, since October 25th, all purchases entering the country will be subject to VAT. Before, the tax was paid, but now VAT will be added. Imagine, the CITES regulations for Jubaea chilensis now prohibit all sales of this palm. I'm only now exchanging seeds of Parajubaea and Jubaea with Marco Antonio, my friend from Bolivia. It's a shame that each palm kingdom, being more numerous than others, is difficult to acquire. Even more so since the Americas are full of palms, especially Latin America. Imagine Chile, a very cold country, and it has palm trees—palms on its islands and on the mainland. Even if they are unique, that's their kingdom. Cachai po que te dejare una. Hugo🌴🌴🌴🦜🦜 -
Is it ok to just cut the end of this canary palm leaf, just the tip that overlaps the sidewalk? or is it more healthy for the palm to cut it off at the base?

Another Tasmanian palm garden
Tassie_Troy1971 replied to mfoster's topic in DISCUSSING PALM TREES WORLDWIDE
The garden is looking exceptional, Mike. I still recall how we first connected—receiving an email from a lawyer is not usually associated with good news. However, as a complete beginner with an interest in acquiring and cultivating palms, you have achieved outstanding results. The Hedyscepes have developed remarkably well, and the addition of subtropical companion plants provides a refined finishing touch. -

Jim in Los Altos replied to Jim in Los Altos's topic in DISCUSSING PALM TREES WORLDWIDE
Thanks Kiwan. I’m fortunate to be in a very mild (for NorCal) microclimate here. Pacific influence, SF Bay buffering, and just enough inland for some good warmth. I just ordered more palms from FB. tonight. I got a suggestion to try Pinanga ‘Maroon Crown Shaft so I ordered a few as well as Chrysalidocarpus ‘Baby Red Stems, Chamaedorea arenbergiana, and Pritchardia aylmer robinsonii. It’s going to be a challenge selecting places for them all! I’ve planted all of the first batch. -
Just buy that plot of land the sooner the better, and plant as many palms as you can. Iam happy with my block of land, 28 years living on my land and love it. Buy your plot of land and build your dream garden. It does take a long time for a palm garden to grow so the sooner you start the better, and if you need more time before you buy, start growing your collection in pots so when you get your land, you will have a head start on the palm collection and palms to plant good luck. But never stop growing and collecting palms and one day your dream garden will appear!
