A bunch of minors by the entrance. This palm has naturalized itself in the surrounding area off the property as well.

    A pretty solid assortment given what they have to work with in terms of cold.  Love the Trachycarpus in the first photo.

    they’ll sometimes plant less hardier palms, but they never are longterm. I’ve seen them plant butia, washies and some caribbean sabal species over the years but they never last
