Do you still have those T. wagnerianus? How are they doing?

Hey Mike,yes I planted them back in April,and they have grown quite well.
They might have grown 4 to 6 inches overall in height,in fact they have grown more than the T. fortunia,which has been in the ground for over a year.They defineatly like the cooler weather and have put more leaves on since September than all summer long.
I also planted a pindo palm same time as the waggies and it has doubled in size,I was surprised for I heard this was a slow grower.I will cover it like a greenhouse,with a sheet of plastic over a wire gage,and hope it makes it thru the winter.
I read that you had to get a smaller greenhouse,have you got it set up yet?

I dont have any protection up yet its been in the 60's these past few weeks. If it gets cold this week like they say I will put stuff up this weekend and next weekend.

Well seems you've been very mild for this time of the year!
But here it has been few days in the 50's but they sayin 40;s next week maybe!

Hey Tropicman, Hey buddy I need your address so I can send you some Butia seed that Laaz gave to me to disperse.

yes its been very mild! This is the time of year I dont mind the drought. I dont have to worry about freezing rain or snow. Its cold today its 35F right now only supposed to get to 45F today. I guess the few palms im experimenting with Ill make sure I cover this weekend.

Those poor people In Georgia,have it really bad!!!
I heard Pikes Nurseries In the Carolinas,Georgia and Alabama were going out of business because of the drought,with a watering restriction they are losing plants all over the place,over 700 people will lose there jobs!!!

Yep I covered mine when It dropped to 29* the other nite!
