I really like seeing before and after shots. I especially like rare palm before and afters because they grow so slow when you see them daily it seems like they aren't even growing but looking back can prove they do. Here are a few of mine feel free to add yours. Dypsis ambositrae 8/08 same plant 8/10

I keep hearing B alfredii will take 25F with no damage. Does anyone know what the lowest temp. they will take with no damage? I recently obtained a nice strap leafed one, a 1 gal size. I'm debating about whether to plant it, or grow it up in a container where I can protect it until next spring. The long range forcast is for a cold winter in the west. Dick1 point

BTW will Bromeliads grow inland in my area? I'm not sure if I've ever seen them around here, but I like the look of them.1 point

Awesome palms. They all look great!! Where did you get the foxy lady? I want one or two for my collection as well.1 point

Nick, I love those before and after shots too! Your stuff is growing great I see. I'm amazed how well stuff is growing "coast-ally" for me too. For some reason this photo always pops up in my photo album on my computer. The amazing part is that it is LESS than 2 years old!! (10-5-08) What the heck, I'll go take a nighttime shot!

How fortuitous that this palm might grow in Florence, home of it's namesake.1 point

This palm seems amazingly tough. Sailed through <25 degrees F this winter, 100 degrees in direct sunlight in summer. Looks like a winner for the Sacramento Valley.1 point

Thanks John, I'll pick up some iron tomorrow... Jv1 point

Frost does not hurt them at all, even when they are very small. I found that mine need just a little protection from the sun in summer at the hottest part of the day. (more than 35 degrees) Peachy1 point

Giuseppe, Italy is no problem for them - heat, sun or cold. Very robust palm.1 point

JV, almost certainly...I have found it to be true for all of the Beccarios.....1 point

Do these palms need a lot of iron??? I have one in a 3 gal pot that has turned a very light green... and I think it needs iron? Thanks in advance. Jv1 point

Hey Gyuseppe, In Brentwood, CA, USA we have a mediterranean climate, Zone 9. I have seen them in full sun from a strap leaf size, and our sun can get hot. Their root systems grow fast, so give them room, or be ready to transplant to a bigger pot each year. P.S.- Congrats!1 point
