Three old men (Coccothrinax crinita) a few houses apart.

Picture 1 & 2 of same two palms. The smaller palm, the older one)is actually recovering quite well from a full storm toppling, 15 or so years ago. For the last two years it has outgrown is younger colleague. Both produce seeds.

The third palm was added to the neighborhood a few weeks before Hurricane Irma. It had a Irma-induced lean of about 30° off center, but was quickly righted.

This Forum is a hungry beast and seems to prefer eating people pictures on a regular basis. The only way to counteract this is to have one photo per post and make sure there are a lot of posts to adequately feed the beast....

Seriously though, picture go missing for no reason around here.
