Hey everyone! My favorite part of reading through these threads is seeing the initial planted picture and then a picture year's later with the palms growth. I was figuring we could gather up a before/after thread for some inspiration coming into the spring season! I posted this in the cold hardy section as I'm in zone 7 so it's more my speed, but any before/after pics in your yard are welcome

Dang that's an awesome transformation! I've been meaning to ask you, where do you source most of your palms from? Do you have any local nurseries you enjoy or is it mainly online? I'm down in the Nashville area quite a bit but am unfamiliar with the good nurseries down there.

Mostly online if you look at one of my recent videos it has where to shop.  A few nurseries here have Small Trachycarpus fortunei and some tropicals in June or so.  Here's the photos side by side, 1st is before then next is after
