   PART I - UPLOADING A PHOTO Introduction Adding a photo to your forum post is really quite easy. First, some basic facts. To display a photo on the forum, you need to upload your photo(s) from your computer to the Internet. Photos are saved from your digital camera to a folder somewhere on your computer, so you need to be familiar with where they are stored. Photos are technically referred to as image files. Each image file has a unique name followed by a default image extension. For example, an image file from your camera might be labeled: HP0123.jpg The first part, "HP0123" is the file name, and ".jpg" is the extension. The extension represents a recognized image fil…

   IPS FORUM LOGO FOR IPS MEMBERS

   December 19, 2007 by PALM MOD

   • 11 replies
   • 10.3k views

   There has been a lot of requests recently asking how to get the IPS logo under your name when you post. First, of course, is you need to be an IPS member. Second, you need to let me know you are a member, and that you wish to have the logo displayed when you post. So if you PM me and give me some indication of your member status, I will check it out and make the neccesary changes. If you have just joined, let me know when, and if you can give me a copy of any confirmation you have received, I can initiate the changes more quickly. If you wish to join, click on the link at the very top of the page to the IPS Home Page.

    Hello: We live in Southwest Florida and have African Tulip trees. We had some limbs that needed to be trimmed but the tree guy topped off all the African tulip trees leaving bare trunks. Is it best just to remove the trees now? Will they ever bloom again? Will the offshoots survive strong winds?

    I wanted my husband to clean up the seed pods on a female sago. I showed him the seeds and "fuzzy" parts to remove and went to the backyard to do weeding. He misunderstood and removed the crown (see photos). I'm assuming it will die?

    Leaf Issues on Windmill Palm (Trachycarpus Fortunei)

    April 25, 2020 by russd58

    Hi, I am hoping to get some help diagnosing some issues with our Windmill Palm (Trachycarpus Fortunei). We have had it one year, size 45 gallons and we live in Austin, Tx. It gets direct sun until late evening. I understand now that these do better with some shade, but too late now. I fertilized it for the first time recently with a 12-4-12, being careful not to over apply. Issues are (1) brown tips and (2) brown areas on some of the leaves at the bottom of the leaflets where they attach to the stem. Pics are attached. Thank you in advance for any suggestions!! Russ
