ive been very busy this spring & i still have alot to plant still but hes some of the palms i planted so far, (Warning)

lots of pics!

first is a pic of my queen palm planted out this Oct. & pulled through fine ,despite some brown on the tips of the newer leaves.center still growing & green! plan on fertilizing it well,along with tons of water.should get established by this winter. & 2 mediterraneans planted out late Feb. came thru prefect,despite a hand full of mid 20's! both flowering, think a male & female?



this is my (jungle) i plan on creating a little jungle here with a bench in the back corner blocked by all the palm trees. a place to sit & relax ahhh... in front 2 brahea edulis,pindo in middle & 2 burnt cali fans in back. cali fans planted out early Feb. took a beating but still alive & growing. i planted them in back as a wind block plus shade, there south facing since 75% of are strong winds come from. i still have a bunch more to plant here, will update when i do.

Sabal blackburniana.



Acolorrhaphe wrightii(everglades palm)
