Found your message board today. Hope more people find out about it!
I am a member of the PNW Palm and exotic plant society. I have numerous palms that I am experimenting with here in a zone 8b climate. Up until last year we had experienced zone 9a or 9b winters but we had three cold nights in early January were we got down to 18F. 😀
I was lucky and I didn't loose any palms but I had the centre spear pull out of my pheonix canariensis but it has since recovered and now has five new fronds growing out of it.
I look forward to talking to all of you in the future.

Welcome to the forum fellow Canadian 😀

I just started this forum not long ago so hopefully more people will find out about it.

Glad to hear your pheonix canariensis recovered. 😀

Regards,
Jay

Hi Wes! I'm fairly new too and in Montana. I'm still an indoor girl with my palms due to our temps, but hopefully someday I will get enough guts to plant one outside. : 😀

I just registered and this is my first post on this board. Some of you may know me from the Pacific Northwest board. Always nice to talk palms & exotics, no matter where you're from.

Cheers, Barrie 😀

Hi i am just arriving. I have been growing palms for a year and a half and I have already 150 trachy seedlings going strong. I recently brought Phoenix seeds back from my trip to Portugal. I am from Victoria BC.

P.S. I am glad to see a forum with decent bulletin software! 😉
