So what's it like to be the owner of over 100 royal palms?

I think it would be great fun 

My royals don’t drop a frond a week maybe a frond a month

That's what I was thinking.  100 Royals x 12/year = 1200 total fronds/year.  I guess that's about 20-25 BOOMS!!!! per week.  Yikes!  :yay:

100 Royals = 100 - 200 fallen leaves, every week! That's insane!

And the royals are only a fraction of the total palms, maybe 15%

If they drop a frond a week and it looks like the leaf spacing is at least 6’’ you don’t have Jack in the bean stock you have Jack and the royal!!!

Frond cremation day, just one of many. About an hours worth of tossing fronds on the fire and I didn't finish. Trying to get them all toasted before the weekend rains.
