Here are some palms I got from NTCHP.  The filifera are 9-10' tall to the tops of the fronds.  I bought and planted them as 1 gallon liners about 18" tall in March of 2018.  I hit them with Daconil in the winter because I have had a couple spear pulls.  The Bismarck I got in March of 2019 as a 7 gallon and replanted into a 15g so I can bring it in in the winter for a while.  The Brahea and Pindo I also got in March of 2019 as 3g.  Brahea spear pulled this past Winter which I'm fairly sure was the excess rain in the crown not the cold but it is growing well now.  Pindo had some pissed off fronds on the crown also which I also attribute to water in the crown.  I now treat everything with Daconil in the Winter per NTCHP's instructions.

@Burl Nice palms!  I love buying from @TexasColdHardyPalms.  Probably due for another order this fall if everything holds together.

I'm fortunate in that I live in the same city where they have their growing operation.  It's an awesome place to visit.  So much more growing than what is on his typical lists.
