excellent pics, thanks for sharing. Love the Bismarck Palms, my faves

I went to Rice Road Greenhouses today. I am going back next week for a giant Yucca faxoniana! Pics of their palms this year to follow.

Nice pics.......

looks like your model became more comfortable over time 🙂

I'll take one of those bismarkias.

We dont have nurseries like that close to me. I have to drive 2hrs to PDN. Or 4 hours to Garys and Chilli palm.

Thanks for the post Adam! I'm headed there on Tuesday! Going to hit up Vineland Nursey and I have ordered two American Hollies from Clint at Stevensville.

great selection of plants............the Yuccas are 😯 I like the S. minor you picked up. 8)

Hmmm I think I'm going to have to hit this place up in a couple of weeks. My back yard reno is nearly complete. I need to get some plants. I have most of what I want but It looks like this place will have the rest. I would love to get a nice size Bismarkia I know it can't over winter it outside but it can cone in over the winter. A couple of small sabal's would be nice as well...

Rice Road greenhouses in Fonthill, ON..
This past Saturday, we checked out their selection of palms (very much like last years') and took pics of their biggies. I was told more will arrive this week

VERY large queen palms:

I can't wait to get my Yucca faxoniana! More pics next week!!

Scott, did you get to go to Rice Road Greenhouses this week? If so what did you buy?

Got there yesterday. Bought just a few small things. Bought another sweetbay mag. Bought more things at Vineland and stevensville. Ill post pics soon. I have them on Facebook if you want to add me there? Look for Scott nichol.

I got out to Rice Road today. Lots of nice stuff. Their Bamboo selection wasn't much to write home about and VERY pricey. I got a 1 Gal Musa Basjoo and a 3 Gal Windmill for my inlaws retirement present. I got myself a 3 gal. Bismark. My wife saw the snake they have there and wasn't impressed. But definitely worth the drive.

Adam.... a great post and what a smashing Nursery. Loved the shape of that 9ft Rostrata 8) Just one question... who grows those giant Queen Palms? 😯 Your Sabal looks in mint condition. Look forward to seeing your Faxoniana.

got myself a 3 gal. Bismark

Barb,

I have to transplant it today its SUPER root bound. and I was totally off in my sizing it was actually a 7 gallon Bismark. I'm putting it in probably 15-20 gallon pot and burying the pot so I can bring it in in the winter/cold nights easily. I'll get some pictures after the with rest of of the yard. I had a slight setback I bought 7 PDP's in a pot from Walmart a couple months back I just separated them this week and planted them and then the last 2 or 3 nights we got frost. 🙁 They're toast now but at least it was only $12 for the 7 of them... not much lost) I've been planting nearly every night this week I got 6 Agave Americana Glauca/5 Agave Parryi. A couple Musa Basjoo, a dwarf Cavendish, A few Yucca Filamentosa. My backyard should hopefully be down this week. Then I get to starty enjoying it.

Some more plants have arrived at Rice Road Greenhouses.
