Here's to all the global warming pushers, may your winters be -30 below and four feet of snow in your driveway. Because I want you happy.

John a buddy of mine picked this up as a 15 gal last summer down in FL for me. It was $29 from the nursery, much better than the outrageous prices for a 15 gal through mail order. The roots are very finicky and really do not like to be moved.
Mike it's one of my favorites as well, just have to see how hardy it can become.
Barrie that Queen palm is the one I cut down to a stump this spring after I fried it with Christmas lights...

I do recall you having an issue with the Xmas lites !!! Those little buggers can kick out some heat. I tried a string of 25 in an enclosure for an Ensete last winter. 20 minutes later, dang ... it was 80°F . I wound up only needing 3 lights on that string and even then with spare use.
Which citrus species are in the photo immediately behind your Bismarkia? They are lookin' healthy too!
Cheers, Barrie.

Yard Pics
Laaz,
your yard looks great. It would be awesome to be able to grow a bismarkia.
I will have to settle for a brahea armata for that blue colour.

Todd, your palms, cycads, and lemons are so healthy looking...and oh, that N/South Carolina temp and sunshine...
fabulous yard.
Great price! At that price, I'm surprised more people don't grow them...but I suppose one acre of yard is minimum for 9-foot long mature leaves!
If THAT Bizzie were in a nursery in British Columbia, the pricetag would read $350 to $450 ...
Guess they get more valuable with every mile heading north
BTW are the dogs in your "good books" again?
No pics of them for a while.

Hi Sebastien. Yes Isle of palms is about 15 minutes from my house. There is a nice little bar we hang out at often right on the beach. http://www.the-windjammer.com/index.html The bikini contests are the best
