I was wondering if there was some queens around there. What else zone 9 plants exist there? I remember seeing chinese hibiscus down there and lemon trees.

Brad we can grow just about all 9a palms here, we are zone 9a. I have Rhapis, Chamaedorea cataractarum & quite a few others in the ground here that do excellent. I have over 40 citrus trees in my yard, from Italian lemons to grapefruit, mandarins & oranges.

Thanks for the pics, Laaz. How long have those queens been there? Public planting or someones yard?
