La Quinta, California is located at 33.6 degrees north and has what I believed to be the furthest northern Cocos nucifera in the world. Reports from Port Elizabeth, SA have never been supported by evidence.

The trunking Cocos nucifera in Cyprus is located at  34.8 degrees north and consequently the world champion! Maurice at 36 degrees north would definitely become the world champion. This latitude is equal to Nashville, Tennessee for comparison! This is mind boggling to those on the east coast of the US. Florida tops out just under 30 degrees north for comparison.

That's why we should all motivate Maurice to plant the coco on the ground in Rhodes the next few months. It will then pretty soon become legitimately a new world record...

Btw we are compiling a new email to the Rhodes Municipality ( Green Service) to have them examine the possibility of planting cocos inside the city of Rhodes. This is all due to Maurice and his huge efforts!

This time and already having outdoors cocos surviving, as Maurice has shown us, we believe the Rhodes Municipality will respond positively...Or at least they will think about it seriously...

That would be great if some got planted in the ground there.

Yeah we emailed them last year (before I got wind of Maurice's cocos) and they simply ignored us.
