Hillizard replied to sleazius's topic in DISCUSSING PALM TREES WORLDWIDEI just had delivery of Phoenix rupicola seeds (probably from an Indian source?) I ordered (via a fellow PalmTalker) from RPS. I'm trying to maximize the chances that these will be unhybridized, unlike some seeds from USA sources. Time will tell... -

Palms1984 replied to The Gerg's topic in DISCUSSING PALM TREES WORLDWIDEI think your Joey palm is very impressive, already. You were 100 % correct by saying it takes 7 or 8 weeks for a Joey palm to open a frond. Mine has taken 7 weeks to completely open its frond. Thank you 🙏 -

gyuseppe replied to sleazius's topic in DISCUSSING PALM TREES WORLDWIDEMy phoenix rupicola have much thinner trunks, I remain of the hypothesis that it is a rupicola x canariensis hybrid

Jdash replied to Merlyn's topic in DISCUSSING PALM TREES WORLDWIDEgreat update, a lot of work has been put in that yard! -
dwimss posted a topic in DISCUSSING PALM TREES WORLDWIDEFor vacation for few days in Punta cana I saw rows of Pseudophoenix vinifera (commonly known as the Hispaniolan Wine Palm) unfortunately some are dying but others looks super healthy… They lost a lot of them … Some still looking good I hope the city will do something to preserve them they might be very old here … IMG_2776.mov

Chester B replied to Chester B's topic in WEATHER / CLIMATEAny day we have a chance of rain I'm frequently checking the radar and I have seen a number of storms come up through the center of the city. I have high hopes for today. -

PlantsEnjoyer replied to PlantsEnjoyer's topic in DISCUSSING PALM TREES WORLDWIDEI recently check for the humidity here. Rest are fine, but its getting dry until the afternoon. Its pretty nornal here since the Australian Monsoon always arrived in Indonesia from the month of April until August/September. But I'm a bit concerned on the El Niño season though, Hope it will not stay for long!

Chester B replied to Merlyn's topic in DISCUSSING PALM TREES WORLDWIDEI think people who don't live in climates like this really understand how hard it is to get things accomplished in summer. I have the same schedule - 30 minutes of work followed by the same for a break. The only difference is I try to stay outside in the shade under a fan and only go inside when I know I'm just too hot. And the weeds in these climates are just insane. That's a ton of work for this time of year.

pj_orlando_z9b replied to idontknowhatnametuse's topic in FREEZE DAMAGE DATARecovery is really picking up here in Belle Isle with the tropical heat and beneficial rains. Apr vs this weekend. Coconut is finally pushing up and not folding. Adonidia made a full recovery and have been the fastest z10 plants to regrow. My final casualty list includes 1 autograph plant, 1 plumeria, and a young/unprotected flame thrower.

PlantsEnjoyer replied to PlantsEnjoyer's topic in PALMS IN POTSI really feel and understand that, even me sometimes I struggled a lot to find the perfect size and shape palms for my garden. Even though I live in the tropics, I have 2 yards front and back which are both very different. My frontyard is really dry, dusty, and swampy but depends on the season. The floor can't get enough sunlight due to large canopy of trees, almost no grasses are alive except those huge trees. My backyard is too small to plant medium to large palms, but the ecosystem is much more better and more direct sunlight! For comparisons: Frontyard Backyard

Valentine replied to Valentine's topic in COLD HARDY PALMSThanks Allen, the pic is a bit deceiving. There is plenty of space 1.4m by 1.5m for the roots to breath. I have attached 2 more pics so you can see it. Please let me know your thoughts, thanks -

Joe NC replied to Joe NC's topic in COLD HARDY PALMSLooks great! I'm glad that I can check in on the progress that it is making. It didn't seem to mind the move. I wonder how my former mules are doing.... I think it got pretty cold in SENC this past winter?
Allen replied to Valentine's topic in COLD HARDY PALMSWhen looking at this pic I don't like the tiles all around it from a palm health perspective, I assume it might be under watered and hard to do anything with the soil in this type planting unless the photo angle is throwing me off. For instance you can't check to see if the roots are healthy or if it doesn't have air pockets under there
Jdash replied to Floribunda Palms's topic in For Saleexcellent list! thank you for all you two do! anyone know the difference between lanonia sp. large mottled and the dasyantha super mottled?
happypalms replied to The Gerg's topic in DISCUSSING PALM TREES WORLDWIDECouple of champion palms there, and did you get you get attacked by any kitty Kats?
happypalms replied to Banana Belt's topic in DISCUSSING PALM TREES WORLDWIDETrimming leaves is purely for aesthetic purposes in most gardens, any amount of life left in a palm leaf will benefit the palm, no matter how tattered or dying look, the palm needs that leaf right up until it decides to drop it. Leaves are a factory for all plants, it’s only us palm nut fanatics who go crazy with the secataures or pruning saw, I pretty well much leave them on until they fall off. There are some exceptions to that rule a problem leaf rubbing against a roof or building, a leaf that is in the way near a pathway, transplanting a palm you remove a lot the foliage. A leaf that is in danger of doing substantial damage if it falls. But in general wait until it dies and falls off.
