Josh-O Posted August 31 Author Report Share Posted August 31 Took long enough to grow up this Chrysalidocarpus malcomberi into a big plantable 5 gallon size plant. I know there are a few different forms so it will be interesting to see how this progresses. I decided to place a temporary shade structure over this to help with acclimation since it came out of my greenhouse and would hate to see it cook in the sun. 11 Carlsbad, California Zone 10 B on the hill (402 ft. elevation) Sunset zone 24 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a couple like that I will be planting soon, lining my new driveway. I also have one that is very plumose leafed. So many "Malcomberis" here, who knows what they all are!?

Josh-O Posted September 25 Author Report Share Posted September 25 Just dropped a variegated Butia odorata in the ground at the Fairview Garden this afternoon. I’ve had this beauty for some time and I figured today was the day. 7 Carlsbad, California Zone 10 B on the hill (402 ft. elevation) Sunset zone 24 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josh-O Posted October 3 Author Report Share Posted October 3 Dypsis robusta made it way into its forever home. Grew this from a tiny 4 leaf seedlings back in 2014. super slow grower. And just think, that’s greenhouse years not outside growing years. 7 Carlsbad, California Zone 10 B on the hill (402 ft. elevation) Sunset zone 24 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BS Man about Palms Posted October 3 Report Share Posted October 3 Sad I didn't or I couldn't buy it. But happy it's in the ground!! Zone 10a at best after 2007 AND 2013, on SW facing hill, 1 1/2 miles from coast in Oceanside, CA. 30-98 degrees, and 45-80deg. about 95% of the time. "The great workman of nature is time." , "Genius is nothing but a great aptitude for patience." -George-Louis Leclerc de Buffon- I do some experiments and learning in my garden with palms so you don't have to experience the pain! Look at my old threads to find various observations and tips! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
