I am one palm purchase away from sleeping in my greenhouse.

Yep, I am in the exact same position as Cali. If I buy another palm, I am in HUGE TROUBLE!!!

Welcome to the world of $4 a gallon... Economy is going down hill very fast & nobody is going to have spending cash very soon....

Wow really Ok maybe bad question to ask lol. I think I am 5 more palms rom being put out of the house.

Maybe; well probably, a Sabal or 2 🙂

I`m getting some Nannorrhops ritchiana. They should do well in our desert. Cali bring the big screen out to the greenhouse now. LOL 😆

John

Allen what kind of sabals you have in mind?

John where are you getting them from?

Why is it we have to go out to the dog house? I think we should send the wives out there for a change

I am looking at varieties of Sabal Minor including Louisiana and perhaps a McCurtain or other hardy variety.

I will try not to buy a Nannorhops Ritchiana. 😥

My major purchases this year will be Cannas and Bananas as well as Z 7 vines for the shelter.

I bought a couple of exotic plants and a Gardenia for my wife 🙂 so if anything is going into the garage it will be the couch. 😆

Macario,

Where did you buy your Butia palm? I'm not far from you and have trouble finding nice palms. Any new nursery to check out would be great.

Thanks Mark

PS: How's your other Butia? Lost? Too soon to tell?

Cali bring the big screen out to the greenhouse now. LOL

I can't, it's full of palms...LOL!!

I hope to get a (Jubea chilensis X Butia capitata) X Syagrus romanzoffiana hybrid this spring.

Hey mark My butia capitata in the ground I brought back from California. The Butia eriospatha I just bought I ordered off of ebay from California. There are a few place here in chicago that have palms. One is called jamaica gardens in morton grove. Another is a place called pesches flowers and garden supplies and its in des plaines IL. Another is Sid's green house and nursery in bolingbrook Il.

Macario,

Thanks! 😀 I'll be sure to check them out.

Hope your palms make the winter!
Mark

I am only buying if the palm salespeople ask me to buy. LOL. Seriously I am about out of room. I have to come up with a way to protect my cold hardy stuff outside in some kind of a pop-up/temporary greenhouse structure. I'll try to post a picture in the next few days of what I am looking at.

Its all about me. Hence a picture of a temporary structure I am thinking about. Your thoughts ?
