Hey guys,
I just wanted to give a shout out to Jeff Searle.  We lost a lot of our palms last year due to Hurricane Irma.  Last week Jeff spent half of his day with us helping us pick out lots of beautiful palms to go back in our garden.  I will post some pictures when this wind stops and we can get them in the ground. 
Thanks again Jeff.

Joe and Kim

From what I heard, the Caribbean species held up well, recovering from the storm if nothing crushed them. Coccothrinax, Copernicia, etc.

Joe what did you score if you don't mind me asking? :interesting:

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!

Thanks everyone. And after alllllllll these years as a grower and collector, it's still so, so much fun.
