Palms in pots are so much fun

The best bit about pots is you can garden anywhere you want too, so why not spruce up the deck! Chuck a few joeys in and a licuala along with a Crysophilla and a rhapis and you have an instant garden!

It's great to be able to enjoy palms at that size and be able to arrange them however you like until they get much bigger!

I keep some palms in pots for a portable garden effect. It is nice to have a few that can be added to an outdoor space like a front porch or under the pergola with the orchids. Change them out occasionally for a fresh look. I keep them under the mature palms in the garden and rotate. Harry

I used to rent years ago. I would relate minature rainforest gardens with all the container plants, if you had move just simply t acc ke your plants. And it was always fun recreating a new garden.

It’s a fun way to garden, and you can always arrange them to your liking on the patio!

I made the mistake of getting more pots, I planted most of what I had in the ground, then I had brainstorm why not grow palms. 
Now I don’t know how many pots I have, at least I can I leave them out in winter is one bonus I guess!

I've accumulated so many pots that I hardly know what to do with them since I normally try and get anything I have get in the ground as soon as possible but then again you never know when you will need a specific pot 😂

About the same here having so many I can only plant so many of them, but I will certainly try and plant them all. One problem I have is having so many varieties I want to plant them all in the good spots and I keep saving those spots every time I go plant something good there thinking I have a better plant for that spot! 🤣
