Gorgeous, Wes.
Interesting how that Yucca resembles my (smaller) Pachypodium Lamerei.
Nice new plants.

I am confused?? On my computer, the pics don't come on????
It says "This photo is currently unavailable".
But...
Okie, the house faces East, w/the garage on the South Side of the house. So the front and back yard get good Morning sun (front yard) and Evening sun (back yard). With the entire yard getting good sun during the day.
Bad thing is, my Hosta are the talk of the neighborhood from March to June, but mid June, MAN, do they get burned!!!!
Lucky, I also have a Pic of my Pachypodiums, I'll try to find them and send them. Then you can add them to this thread if you can.

Hi Wes...strange that you don't see the forum's pics.
Maybe try refreshing the screen when you get onto the Cycad forum.
I'd love to see the pachy lamerei when you find the photos.
And after I screwed up royally 😳 (putting your pics in the wrong place AFTER I used someone else's name as picture owner), I think you'd better send them to (North Van) Wes. He very kindly fixed my goof and relocated your photos.

Here they are. Now lemme tell you, this pic was taken in Feb. So the pic is of them after a Winter. In the last 2 weeks, they have EXPLODED, and I do mean EXPLODED with new growth....

Holy...very nice pachys, Wes.
How old's that tall one?
Mine is now planted in the ground, under my Trachy fortunei, in partial shade.
It's grown a few new leaves...but I would like to see them EXPLODE like yours have. 😀

Not sure about the age of any of them. The middle sized one, I think Stve gave me, WOW, that one has put on, no eggageration, about 15-20 new leafs in the last 2-3 weeks.
The Big one, I got from Wal Mart last year.
