A lovely Cocothrinax Alta in the garden

[happypalms]

A trio of Alta to make the garden a bit special. While not planted in a group they look just as good as singles planted on their own. All are 23 years old so slow and in dry part of the garden, with irrigation having been installed 2 years ago. And there is a slight difference in growth with a little extra water. One beautiful palm well worth growing in any collection.

Yes , super slow here but worth the wait. My winter is not too bad but mine hates it . By Fall , it looks very nice. I believe mine is the Barbadensis. It is about 26 years old from a seedling.i got at Jungle Music. Harry

‘Planted out in full afternoon sun.

About the same age as my ones. Slow for sure. But well worth the wait. The concrete gives it some thermal mass so a good place to plant it.

They are a very pretty  palm and I had one planted at the old house but as everyone has said, very very slow, therefore valuable garden space has to be used for something that gives more rapid results unfortunately.

And iam sure an advanced specimen would cost an arm and a leg. Unfortunately the older we get the better  our palms look.
