Happy Gardening

Hi Joe

Yes palms for Brisbane Will be able to help you with these palms .

I got a big 70cm Hedyscepe from them in March ( already have 3 growing down here )

I have spare Rhopalostylis sapida but no baueri .

Parajubaea cocoides is going to be a tough one to source . I got mine from a palm grower down here but ha hasn't any spares left now .

Great guys, thanks for that. I'll be intouch with them and hopefully have some palms on the way soon.

I have 2 sapida allready they seem to be doing pretty well. I thought the patajubaea would be hard to find.

Just curious if you've searched the forum at all for other Melbourne gardeners.. There are a few of us raging palmaholics in Melbourne and all these palms are growing here. PFB can be useful, but you will always have a more challenging time of it acclimating a tropic-grown bare-rooted palm. B armata and P cocoides are available In Victoria, but privately, not commercially.
