Pal Meir Posted August 27, 2015 Report Share Posted August 27, 2015 At 47°11' North? Very nice! And not only Butia and Trachycarpus, but also a Chamaerops (photo N°3) as it looks like. My photos at flickr: flickr.com/photos/palmeir/albums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Palm crazy Posted August 27, 2015 Report Share Posted August 27, 2015 (edited) I’ve seen lots of new palms here also. Once one neighbor plants a palm the others want one two. Killer view, well done! No one has green lawns in Oly. LOL! Edited August 27, 2015 by Palm crazy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
willials Posted August 28, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 28, 2015 Good call Pal, yes that is a med fan palm in the front yard. 3 out of 4 didn't make it through the last few years but this one did, and not only that, it flowered this spring so I was pretty pumped about that.

willials Posted August 28, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 28, 2015 Thanks for the compliment, PC. I have seen more palms in puget sound area this year than I ever have before and mature ones too. I'm guessing people are buying and planting more mature palms in general here now. Most of the lawns around here are brown also, but we have a homeowners association that sends us nasty letters for not watering...go figure. It has been quite a warm and dry summer.
