Copernicia macroglossa, Cape Coral, November 2018

I was outside taking photos yesterday and included a few of my largest Copernicia macroglossa. I received it as a 1g from a palm friend in 2008, so this is 10 years growth in the ground. Very slow but a mesmerizing palm nonetheless. To its credit, it has had to cope with the dwarf red spicata coconut (lost to Irma in 2017), a Coccothrinax and our largest Sabal Lisa, so doesn't always get all the sun it craves, esp. in winter - the Caribbean Garden faces north. Those gorgeious fan leaves are covered with sandpaper teeth and saw-tooth edges, so weeding and pruning it gets hazardous.
