Found this poor little fella I found on the understory floor, still alive throwing out aerial roots, completely out of the ground. Most likely a scrub turkey victim being scratched out in some turkey festival looking for grubs the dam thing. Curse the turkey I say digging up me palms. But alas the Cham has survived for gosh knows how long being a victim of some turkey festival!

    They are tough little buggers alright. It's amazing that with some protection from the sun, they can really do with very little water & just hunker down. Once the water supply returns, he'll be glorious..

    They are tough indeed, sunlight is there only enemy. They will drink as much water available given good drainage, and as you say they just sit and wait for water. I just pushed this one back into the soil, pretty sure it will grow happily again.
