Those are some awsome pics of how well everything is doing. How are sales going? I`ve done better than ever this year with people buying mostly Trachy`s and planting them after they see mine planted. Their neighbors are already asking about how they can get some for next year as I`m sold out of the 15 gal. I`ll post some pics of some miracle large butia c`s that have sprouted new fronds from spear pull after a year of sleep "amazing". Keep up the good work.

Looking good! I really like Crape Myrtle bark, too bad it isn't hardy (without protection) up he and I've had to use replacements... Ah well.

Hey- I Arbutus hardy down there?

Thanks Tim!
It's actually not all that bad I'm starting to get better at it. Plus in a weird way it's kinda fun? Can't really explain that one. Winters going to come anyways so might as well enjoy the palms before they go into there houses right, what better way then protecting them.

Hey John,
That's Great that your having a good year with sales! Things have been going good here too, people are finally starting to find out about the stuff I have here. Next year will be a much better year for me I'm sure, first few years are always the hardest. People are buying up the trachys left and right here to and planting them. I only have a few left!

Can't wait to see pictures of the butia and here the story about it.

Thanks for the comments!

Bill

Thanks Paul!

I haven't seen much from you this year, how is everything going for you?

Crepes are really cool, I hope they keep on preforming year after year for me. The Natchez is in a good spot so will see.

I've never seen Arbutus anywhere around here before, is there a specific type that is hardier then another?

Bill

Bill, holy crow look at that tropical jungle!!! 😀 😀
Next year your house will look like a bungalow.

You give us all hope that our palms can put out that many fronds in one season.

I bet all traffic comes to a halt in front of your place.

Man, those new princeps are nice.
Thanks for those great pics.

PS--you'll have to move furniture out of your dexter room this winter. 😆 😆

Barb,
Thanks so much! This year has been really great for the growth of everything here. The palm hut don't fit again already 😯 The protection just gets bigger and bigger, it's a challenge in it self. (a fun one) My oldest trachy is putting out four leaves at a time now which is pretty crazy since I only juiced it twice this year, the first one in spring was just a little bit too.

I'm excited about the princeps, I can't wait to put them in the ground in a few years. Steve in Alabama has some really nice palms for sale on ebay that's where I got them 😀

As for the dexter room, it's getting bigger for sure! The basement is going to be pretty packed this winter 😆 😆 😆

Thanks again!

Bill

BILL That is AWESOME!! (as I clean up the drool from my desk)....
WOW!! WOW!!!!!!WWWOOOOOOW! 8) 8) 8)

Thanks Heidi!

I just found a basjoo flower in the jungle the other day, it will be my first. I'll post pictures of it soon. It looks like a super sized corn cob right now!

Bill

I'll look forward to that banana flower pic., Bill.

grats on the musa flower!!!
