That's a monster!
Hate to bring it up, but what are your protection plans looking like?

Challenging, but no different than my Palmetto or other Pindo. Box method mostly. I may have to get a city permit to build a big structure on my front yard... lol

Wow, that's a truly impressive palm. It makes one a bit curious to know if there are any bigger Butia in Canada.

I am aware of one nearly as tall in the Vancouver area, but no where near the girth.

Your's look simply amazing in your yard. A traffic stopper for sure.

Hmmm thanks Brooklands, you have me curious for sure.
I know banana Joe has a video of a massive CIDP on his island with some serious girth,
But funny, I'm unaware of any Butia. I would love to see the Vancouver ones of you have pics.

This one measures approx 86" in diameter, it probably is the largest in this country,
Or simply Ontario for sure.

See attached pic, and thanks!

One never knows what is behind some of those mansion walls, but if I had to guess, the biggest non trachy in Canada outside of the aurboretums is likely the one you mentioned, Brian's Cloverdale CIDP, biggest Jubaea are probably Jeff's in Victoria, and your's is likely the biggest Butia. You could probably count the over 12' pinnate palms growing outside in Canadian private gardens on your fingers.

I don't have photos, but I was just at Cedar Rim Nursery east of Vancouver, and they had a dozen or so 8 foot Butia, and the thickest was maybe 12 inches diameter. Nothing even closed to your 86" circ. I have seen some big ones down in Oregon, and again, taller, but no where near the mass. You have a real beauty there.
