Everything is looking good. Will be interesting to know if the ghost plant comes back. I did cover mine but would like to not cover it.

how did you ammend the soil in that cactus area Jim? I am about to start working on mine..suppose to be 60 here tomm. and would like any info I can. last thing I want to do is work on it for a week and have the soil rot everything out.

How cold did it get within your enclosures this winter? Looks like the snow is finally gone! The palms all looks very healthy and I like the shape of the Waggie is cool.

Thanks Chad

I think for sure the side shoots will and possibly the small plant on the left-
the trunk is still solid on it!

I dug out 12-18" and lined the bottom with limestone for drainage,the I added sand and soil 50/50 at the bottom 1/3,all the rest is about
40/40% pea gravel/sand and 20% soil from the same area.

I wish I did that the first year-I ended up having to do it the following summer and digging around all the plants!
I was not thinking when I did it at first,I just piled sand up over the soil
that was there,this acted as a mulch to keep the soil wet underneath-dah!

Thanks Chi-palm

Most of the palms were spoiled as they were on the same circuit as the bigger Princeps,they probably didn't see much below 18F or so
but there was a brief visit to 12F after sunset for about an hour or so.
The cactus shelter very rarely ever saw below 20F.

Looks great!

thanks Jim I figured I was going to have to dig down a bit. looks like an all day project for me.

Your palms look great!
