Dwarf Fan Posted September 18 Report Share Posted September 18 Captivating! I love how you have instantly wisked me away to a “tropical Palm paradise” in 7A! I am working hard to get there someday, clearly you have a few years headstart on me, wow I love the inspiration someday I hope to have my “tropical Palm jungle” surrounding my pool as well! Can I get a Palm and Bamboo list please sir? I think I spy a Trachy Fortunei? Sabal Minor? Is that a Mule or a Butia Hybrid…? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RFun Posted September 18 Report Share Posted September 18 (edited) I'd call it a 7b area (with the pool nearby/surrounding vegetation there), but looks quite impressive for that far North. Edited September 18 by RFun 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Palmlex Posted September 20 Report Share Posted September 20 (edited) Your yard looks incredible. I still can't believe you're in zone 7a. I'm technically in the same zone and a few years ago we had between -6F to -11F on the first of March, which would have likely wiped out every palm.
