Thanks guys,
Tim its a little early for planting with possible snow this week. Last year a late frost hurt a lot of new plants.
Mike the trachy came from ebay along with some of the agaves. But the dyckia and A americana came from the beach. Cant wait to get back there to get all the palms I didnt have room for.

Nice over-wintering room, you have some great plants in there.

Thanks barb, since I added a two windows and several lights the plants are loving it. My trachy princeps are opening a new frond each. Cold weather has delayed several shippments from yuccado, cistus and pdn. Which means I am still waiting on my Takil.

Got another shippment in today. Been arguing with PDN about shipping my plants for some time. They insist on waiting till its safe. So today on a cold day with ice and rain my plants arrive. How freaking ridiculous? At least I finally have my T. Takil. Its as small as I expected it to be. Just wondering if I should risk planting it this yr. ?
Some shots of the yard.
The rest of my plants screaming to get planted.

Love your plant room, Chad! 😀
Can't wait to see your Takil planted.
I don't have a Takil, just have a princeps, which looks really good.

Thanks Barb, I have two princeps. I really want to plant one, but Im worried about its true hardiness. I guess I could box it up like first year trachies. Hopefully in my zone that would be enough.

princep is on my must get ASAP list

I'll be buying in like four large 7g palms. When I get my tax return. Here is my list: pindo, sabal Birmingham, sabal minor and needle palm and some 3g mutes palms.
Nobody panics when people plant normal trees because its part of the plan... if someone plants a Palm EVERYONE LOSES THERE MINDS!

Mike, you really gotta have one or two. They are so beautiful now, I cant wait till they grow up. 😀
Ninja, thats a nice list. And the larger ones will acclimate faster IMO. Be sure to post pics when you get em.
