It's a good thing I'll never post pictures of the 75' footer I'm going to cut down because its shading out my solar panels I grew from seed 10 yrs ago.

I do some experiments and learning in my garden with palms so you don't have to experience the pain! Look at my old threads to find various observations and tips!

ok with that out of the way...

 

all I was saying is when folks walk down that sidewalk they look at me and say "holy smokes - what the heck is that ?"

you might see them all the time in Florida - you don't see them here is a residential neighborhood.

not bad for an inexpensive 10 gal palm from a " bang per buck"  perspective

Wimmie, be sure that you sow the seeds on TOP of the medium, as they require light for germination !:rolleyes:

Bismarcks are FAN-TAS-TIC, easily one of very top favorites, this specimen shows why

Corpus Christi, TX, near salt water, zone 9b/10a! Except when it isn't and everything gets nuked.

Nice bizzie. Although there's gotta be a better angle from which to take a pic of it to really do it justice...
