The September meeting of the Palm Society of Southern California is going to be on Saturday September 16 at the amazing garden of Ralph Velez in Westminster. For those who don't know Ralph, he has over 400 species growing, and quite a few of the palms are ~40 years old. We'll also be touring a local park where Ralph has been able to create a palm island for the public. As always, there will be an auction at the meeting. There's usually a lot of rare palms at these auctions, and usually some great deals. More details are on the PSSC webpage

It's that time again! Our March, 2011 meeting, on March 23, 2011. Be there, or be square . . . . This is a 21-year-old garden, entering its prime. Gregg Hamann, our host, started back in 1990 with a few Archontophoenix cunninghamiana, but he didn't stop there. The Hamann garden now has 401 different species of palms (species, not plants), including many Madagascan and New Caledonian species. Unlike many other gardens, the Hamann garden is unique for its use of relatively rare species for its canopy. There are literally scores of outstanding specimen palms in this garden. Mr. Hamann's favorites include: Syagrus glaucescens, Dypsis tsaratenensis, Dyp…

Howdyall: It's that time again, and we're having our meeting in Orange County, the OC at two adjacent cheek-by-jowl gardens. The Palm Society of Southern California will be holding its November, 2012 meeting at the homes of John Boyer and Guy Young. They are next-door neighbors sharing a “friendly gate” at 21561 and 21551 Archer Cir., Huntington Beach, CA 92646 respectively. Please enter through John’s front door and continue straight through to the back yard. John decided in the mid-1990's, after a trip to Hawaii, that tropical landscape was what he wanted for his yard.
