A large B. armata (6 feet of trunk) died this year at one of the nurseries I frequent.

They are looking for a large one to replace it.

What have you got?

Thanks,

John

What happened to it?

A very ugly case of crown rot due to irrigation. It was dead for over a year we guess befor anyone noticed the collapse of the crown.

It looked like someone gave it a flat top.

Very sad...Now the owner knows better.

John,

Don't have anything with 6 feet of trunk but I do have this 15gal. B.armata, pure silver without any green:

$80 My yorkie is 7" at the shoulder so that should give some scale. I also have seedlings but from another source.

PM me or call 949.661.2138

Hi John,

If you are still looking, check Botanical Partners in Fallbrook , they have large specimen sized palms and have Brahea armata listed.
