Here are the pics Joe sent me of the palm transplant. I have to say that's a nice sized palm. 😀

Enjoy 😀

Regards,
Jay

Nice pics Joe!

I wish something like that would live in yard 😀 maybe if we keep growing our plants we will come up with a super hardy hybrid.

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.

The gal in the pic. with me is a good friend of mine, and the palm is now planted in her already amazing exotic garden. Lynn is an amazing sculpture and landscaper. All the exotic plants we removed from the pub went to her garden. She has many palms flourishing there and she will be the one who will relandscape the pub with all sorts of exotica. She definately has an eye for it, and many of the subtropical gardens she has created on our rock sure show it. Cheers, Joe

When Lynn finishes the Pub landscape I will definately take some pics. The pub is right on the ocean in one of the mildest locations on SSI. Joe

That is one healthy looking Trachy. Well worth the effort to transplant it.

Jay, Those two big clumps of Pampass Grass were so heavy that we even had the excavator ajust them in the new planting hole, because we couldn't budge them by hand. Cheers, Joe

Yeah, They look really heavy. Are those Yucca Recurvs on the back of the truck?

That is a pretty sweet Trachy. I wish I could have one that size right now! Maybe someday... one of my friends sent me some seed and they are starting to grow, so someday...

Jay, It is just an old clump of Filimentosa. It was very heavy too. Cheers, Joe
