Thanks Don, naybe more of a Village at the moment 🙂

One more photo..........

Looking great!
Mine has yet to flush!!!
I went to Raymone Sharon house today,and bought a 5 gallon,sabal minor,Mcurtain,vareity,6years from seed,for
25 bucks.he has some seedlings,of a sabal that has 8ft fan spread leafs,he said these don't trunk,I don't know of this vareity do you?
He has 3 gallons of the sabals,but I didn't get a price,and lots of basjoos,here's his number if you'd like to call him and get
a price list,he doesn't have a computer,and he didn't take any of these to the farmers market.
316-269-1440.

The Sabal minor " McCurtain " lineage goes back to natualized specimens from McCurtain County,OK
Should prove to be quite hardy, not sure what differences in growth rate,etc.

Thanks for the Info! I forsee a trip to Wichita in my near future ... lol

Your Sago should be starting up soon, about half of mine have so far. Still waiting for the verdict on the Zamias outside, cleared the mulch and found some healthy root nodules at the surface, just need the warm weater to stick around a while.

I forgot to ask you how your robusta did?
Mine that I covered with trash cans,did get some leaf freeze burn,even the top part of the new leaf spears are brown,but when they come out some more there are green,so half leaf is brown other half green!!!
I tell you they look a little ragged,hopefully with the warmer weather they will perk up again!

The robusta suprised me, it fared better than the native trees!
Just a little tip burn, Two fans were on their way out before the freeze- if anything it sped that process up a little.

Good to hear yours are OK, I'm sure by the end of Summer all evidence of damage will be long gone.

Steve

TROPIC!!!!!! Is this guy in Wichita????? I will buy some from him this week if he is in Wichita. PLEASE Respond ASAP.

Yes in Wichita,1 block east of the 1st Nazerene church that has the large yuccas,which are in full bloom,there just beautiful too,I wished I'd had my camera yesterday!!!!

That Church you can see around the Kellog-Washington Exit?
Where did the Church get those Yuccas at????? And what kind are they?
So I just need to give him a call and he might sell me a "McCurtain" for $25?

Yes that church,Ray,is the care taker of the church and planted the yuccas years ago,along with everything else at the church.
Ray also has lots of hardy plants to our zone,yuccas,desert willows,hardy live oaks,basjoos,acubas,lantana,a vareity of mexican bird of paradise,the list goes on and on,of hardy plants,hardy cactus,huge list,better bring lots of cash,took about
300 bucks from me!!!!LOL

This one ended up with a fairly nice set of leaves , Think I may have to give it some more room 8)

Wow thats wonderful,never seen a wider range of different size leaves,from old to new!!!

Thanks Don, Have a new camera I'm still trying to figure out ..lol

Cycas petraea

Zamia vazquezii

Steve,
You got it looking like a cycad jungle in there!!!
How warm has been in there lately,mine hit 90* for the first time this spring!!!

Don - Abot 90 - 95F the last two days. I'll let it get to 100* before turning the big fan on.

This weather is a nice change, can actually see things growing each day now. Soil is starting to warm up too, the in ground Cycads the GH are starting to flush so it shouldn't too much longer for the ones outside.

Steve

Steve; you have a great collection of Cycads.
