Saint Augustine Coconut Palm - spring 09' update

I spent a couple weekends in Saint Augustine recently and was in the area of the famous Saint Augustine Coconut Palm on San Marco. I was curious of it's condition (as many of you might also be) after such a harsh Florida winter so I snapped a couple pics. I was surprised to find out it survived with moderate damage. It should make a full recovery.

Also, stopped by Moultrie Palms, visited Frank & Elaine Lewis and picked up another 2 Mule's. Frank was having a great sale so I couldn't resist. :) Surprising notes regarding Moultrie Palms stock. Mr. Frank left most palms uncovered through the winter and stated low's were in the LOW 20's... the result is that his Kings were clobbered with little chance of recovery. His Queens pulled through no problem. His Royals suffered damage but surprisingly are all recovering. And many of his young Mule's (1-7 gallon) suffered spear pull, several with no chance of recovery.
