Jubaea Chilensis - Chilean Wine Palm - Looking to Purchase in Bay Area California

[bussinboy]

Hi I was looking to purchase at least one Jubaea Chilensis - Wine Palm around 45 gallon, 24", 36" box range in the Bay Area (or in Souther California or maybe even Oregon and bring it over).

Also a couple of 15-25 gallons as well.

Was wondering if anyone have any good recommendations where I can source these?

It's a large, exotic palm tree. You'll look like King Solomon in all his glory.

If I may boldly ask, how much did you sell it for and who moved it?  How old is it?

I know Moon Valley in Brentwood has several. I saw them myself about a month ago. I had to pull over because they had a couple big Bizzies out front. I looked at the rest of their stuff in the back. Big box Jubeas, just like you are looking for.

Did you look at the price? They have also imported these box size trees into Arizona. Sales were brisk at first with about 2 dozen sold in the $15K price range, installed, but you can get one now for under $10K. Still seems pricey for a 2 ft tall ball trunk, but instant gratification does come with a cost.🤷‍♂️

I was talking to the guy that didn't know any Latin names and he seems pretty proud of the wine palms which is why he showed them to me. I casually asked price I think he said 8 or something like that but I wasn't paying too much attention. I wasn't buying one and I don't have the space for a monster like that.

 

He had to assure me that the price comes WITH installation and warranty🙄 I've never been to a nursery that has a sales office like I'm buying a used car, so that was kind of a new experience for me...

Thanks guys! I secured a few of the Wine Palms from Moonvalley in Brentwood. 😃
