Happy Easter to you also!

Maybe Chrysalidocarpus loucoubensis. Does it throw a reddish new frond?

In Germany, there are no options to put them in the ground and grow them outdoor. But: I do my very best.

Hi all, Bought this Yucca as rigida "Blue Sentry" from a french nursery. Hope it's the real one. Will plant it outside next weekend. Hope it will survive our winters and grow like estimated. Eckhard

One of my coconut palm spear caught my eye with its huge size

Red latania & cranberry acetosella hibiscus

Thank you so much for your kindness. It’s wonderful to be here, to have this opportunity, and to grow every day—even though we all face our own challenges. I wish each and every one of you strength, faith in the good, and the knowledge that even the smallest joys of the day can help us walk this path. The journey is the destination.

That is truly very sad. Our deepest sympathies go out to the entire family. I have read many of his reports. Another great master has ascended to watch over us from above and inspire us that anything is possible with knowledge, patience, and love for plants and exotic species. He, too, inspired me deeply—and Sabine as well. Warm regards from Lake Constance Tom and Sabine

We would like to express our deepest condolences to his wife and family. Even before Palm Talk, we had been watching Walt’s wonderful videos on YouTube. He was a great inspiration to me and Sabine. It seems to us that a great master has ascended to continue supporting and inspiring us all from above, including new palm enthusiasts, and to help us believe that anything is possible. May he rest in peace ☀️🌴

Planted this palm years ago, tag is long gone. Can someone please ID?

🌴🤗, Great photos and really unique, Keith

A little late, but better late than never—happy Easter Monday to everyone 🤗🌴☀️

A little late, but I hope you’ll accept it—Happy Easter Monday, Bodie 🤗🌴☀️

Everyone will make a full recovery. Great job, Jonathan, and have a wonderful Easter Monday 🤗

Maybe it's the extremely rare Tall Dwarf?

@Merlyn Allegoptera would still have a heel!!!

I would love that!!!!

I know this was posted awhile ago but what do these mexicanas look like now?

Super smooth experience buying from @JohnAndSancho (dba “Sancho’s Green Paws”). He’s a trusted member of the PalmTalk community—with a great sense of humor as a bonus 🤣 The Jack’s Giant Elephant Ear bulbs I ordered were HUGE and really well packaged—even had a support piece in there so nothing got crushed. Communication was excellent from pre-order questions all the way through follow-up to make sure everything arrived in good condition. Would happily buy from him again!

I hate to say it, but I am pretty sure that all of mine died from 22.5F and 20ish mph winds. I dug out and trashed a Maxima and Cunninghamiana triple today. All had squishy trunks and spear pull. These 4 were just barely trunking, so roughly 6 feet tall overall. I have 3 more questionable ones with 3 to 6 feet of trunk. They were all fine with 9B temps, taking variable frond burn in the upper 20s and frost. The backyard one even survived 24.4F and frost a couple of years ago. In 9B I think they'd do great. Except for the record breaking February cold front here, I think they'd all still be doing great.

With the small teeth on the sides of the fronds, maybe it is a Copernicia? It looks a lot like Meg's seedlings here:

Any updated pictures now?

@Jake1989 nice to meet you! Where are you moving to? Near where you are now or someplace different?

Definitely not Rhopalostylis. I get volunteer ones by the dozens and they look very different. They start out with bifid leaves like in the photo below.
