Wanted to share a pic of my Bismarckia Nobilis I raised from seed. I think I started 2018 or 2019. I just repotted it in a 24 gallon pot. Moved it back inside for the winter. Surprised how good it does inside. 20221018_162841.thumb.jpg.4b9971925f91c5203201ae1d1ad31b6f.jpg

They adapt well indoors. I find they just slow down quite a bit

I have two in my yard in zone 8a not sure what to do before winter. Got plastic covers over but unsure if it’s enough 

Lowest seen: 16F, Highest seen: 105F. Heavy red clay (iron oxide). Amended to 6.5-7PH using Dolomitic lime. (No yearly fertilizer for lawn, just for independent plants).

Like, planted in the ground? If so, good luck. It may take a lot to keep these alive in an 8a winter.
