Haven't seen the local blue big box this decked out since before the freeze (1-10 and Fry Rd). Time to replant the queens!

Any CIDP? How are prices?

HGC video on website says they grow their own plants locally now. Those windmills use to come from out west. They look ratty and yellow. It’s no wonder the Queens get planted. Some of those big ones look Florida grown. My guess is they are.

Drove past the local blue big box this morning, parking lot had a fenced in area that was not open that was loaded with foxtails, bottles, queens, pymgies, who knows what else but was hard to see.  I was hoping to see some bizzies or mules but did not.  Will have to stop over later when they have opened it up.

Forgot to mention this place in west Houston/Katy. They have large specimen mules, Bismarckia, and dates.

They are a ripoff from what I’ve seen. Their  business location doesn’t have much onsite inventory, most of it is stored at their offsite nursery. I think they deal in mostly installs around pools, expensive homes, etc in the Sugarland area.

Moon Valley nursery on I-10 and BW8 has tons of palms incl. mules, dates, Sabal, Livistona, Butia, etc. Some rarer stuff sometimes. Don't know about pricing

I stopped at the HGC on the Far East side near the San Jacinto exit 2 weeks ago, no CIDP’s, just queens, robusta and windmills, that’s it, it was a small nursery.

Went to Millberger's today in San Antonio.  Prices were straight up "redonkulious" for most stuff (inflation and all I guess).  They did have about 20 + Sabal sps. with over 7' of trunk, which was a little more than I am used to seeing there.

image.thumb.jpeg.fe28932f6bcf824821f9427736c63de6.jpeg

The one in the middle was labeled 8 1/2' of trunk, and selling for $1450 (that was one of the cheaper ones).  The tag said that price included planting and a guarantee (whatever that entails).  I have never bought a palm that big, so I have no idea how reasonable that price is; however, its sounds pretty high to me.  Some were still fruiting, with fruits smaller than peas.  That makes me think Sabal palmetto, possibly Florida stock.

I also stopped by Rainbow Gardens (Thousand Oaks location).  They were selling two Brahea calcarea (utilizing the synonym Brahea nitida; vernacular "White Rock Palm") for $240 each, and few smaller Bismarckia nobilis for $45 and $100, respectively.  Other more common palms too, but those were the "not-so-common" ones that had me take notice.

Yeah that Sabal is a tad expensive, I was once quoted $450 for a tree and install, about the same size as the one in your pic. $200 if I just wanted the tree but I have no way of loading up and planting a tree that size. This is in south Alabama, I’m sure they are probably cheaper here seeing how they are everywhere in this area and we’re 30 mins from Florida line.

That's where I got my B. calcarea at the Thousand Oaks location.  Back in 2019 a slightly smaller palm in the next smaller container was $45!  Bandera location also has them for the same price but smaller selection of palms.

It is worth the trip to the Rio Grande Valley to pick up hardy palms.    The prices here are half of those in Austin, if not less.    Plus,  you can get fabulous tamales to take home as well.

I dunno, when I see nurseries ( businesses in general) without prices you end up with pricing based on what you drive in and what’s your native language.

You bring cash and speak Spanish.   That is also a bonus of having money and curiosity.   Otherwise, you overpay in Austin.

Still looking for a 15 gallon or Larger Canary Island Date Palm. Most I ever spent on a single palm was $400 total. I payed 70% off mine in 2000 at HGC so I got them for $90 in those large wooden boxes. Those were the good days!

Last early spring Lowes in the Austin area got in some 10 gal Canaries, but I wasn't ready to think of replanting.

I definitely enjoy going down there, but a 10-12 hour round trip when I don’t know what I’ll find or if I’ll bring anything back is a hard argument. You would need another primary reason for going.

Yes, round trip. Unless you are moving there. Its actually over 6 hours there, and 6 hours back. 12-13 hours of driving to buy palms. You would definitely have to know what you were going for, for it to make sense.

I was planning a trip tomorrow to Austin: was given a quote for a 15 gallon Silver Med palm at

Vivero Growers Nursery for $349.99. 
Both of mine lived and looked half alive after 4*F I have one that maintains a single trunk and another that is a clumping form. Great palm. Gone are the days of blue pots for $25 and less than $100 for 15 gallon. 

Haven't been there since last year, but Flamingo Gardens in Galveston had 5 gal Cerifera for $50

John Fairy Garden has 5 gallon Brahea Armata and a 5 gallon Jubaea for $250. They had Macrozamia listed as available,turns out that was intended for garden. Big bummer! 

I was told they don’t sell their much sought after Sabal Uresana. I wish someone could convince them otherwise. Nuts. Just Nuts.

The 8.5’ sabal would be about $380 in the Rio grande valley- cash price. You would need to haul and plant.

The Lowes in Pearland had some oversized Bottle Palms pushing out of their 25 gallon containers. They also had huge Foxtails that reached the entry way roof of that greenhouse/awning in the picture. For those that can grow them.

I stopped by Paradise Palms at York creek today in New Braunfels.  Decent selection of palms including large palms.  They have Queens, Pindos, Washingtonias, Sylvester dates, canary island dates, windmills, med fans, pygmy dates, sabals, and a variety of other palms.  Prices too high, although he did have Mexican fan palms for 24 dollars.

Did they have small Sabals available? I bought a 1 gallon from them several years ago but I’ve never seen a smaller Sabal since.

Any prices size pictures on the CIDP? I can be there Sat or Sunday if open.

I don't remember exactly, but around 130 or 140 dollars.  Good size.  I don't know how many gallons pot, but they were decent sized, top frond maybe 2.5 or 3 ft high.  These are rough estimates.  I almost got one.   I thought it was a little overpriced, I would have like to seen it around 70 or 80 dollars for that size, but oh well.

Did they have small Sabals available? I bought a 1 gallon from them several years ago but I’ve never seen a smaller Sabal since. 

I'm almost positive he had small sabals.  I will try to double check, it's 10 min from my house.  He has large Sabals everywhere, but I think he had a few small ones also.

Ok yeah that sounds about right. They looked healthy and decent sized, if not a little over priced.

No new palms this week at Barton but plenty of cactus. Neobuxbaumia polylopha, Espostoa lanata, Trichocereus terscheckii, etc.
