Hello from London ontario,I have always been facinated with palms and plan on getting some cold hardy varieties this spring,I currently only have a pygmy date palm and a dozen date palm seedlings I started from seed a few summers ago.Im hoping to find a windmill and a needle palm to start with at least,I go all out to protect my bananas outdoors so overwintering palms will be nothing new I hope!!!!

Welcome!
I am a new member and have received a lot of great tips.
There are active members from Ontario who can give you ideas for your area.
Sharing photos is popular. Can you show us those bananas? Or the date palms?

Welcome Willy!
I think you'll have no problem finding those palms in the spring. Scott and Paul are both in Ontario, but I'm not sure how far from you.
I know the Niagra area has a pretty good selection from what Scott brought back.
