These are trachy fortuneis, right? 

 

There's a dead one between these 2 with a for sale sign on it. If I were opportunistic, what time of year would I look for seeds? If I were stupid enough to call the number and ask about the trees, how hard are these to transplant? Like am I gonna need to dig a 10x10 foot hole? 

The orange box store sells 1g online 2 for ~$60ish but these are just a smidge bigger. Like easy 10ft.

Yes,Trachy's.. Would need to dig 3x3x3 for a successful transplant. Can you lift 500 pounds by yourself? 🤔 Probably better off to buy a potted tree and put in the time to grow to that size . 🤷‍♂️

Between whatever my health issues are and these stupid meds, no. I absolutely cannot do that lol. 20 years ago? Ehhh I couldn't lift it but I could damn sure push it onto a trailer.

Yea , with transplanting palms that size you would need at least two people and a lot of work. Depending on your age , you can grow one that age and watch it grow. Harry

I'm 46 and not in the greatest shape lol. I know @Allen has a rocket trachy. Every time I watch his YouTube videos I get the same palm envy I get from @happypalms posts.
