| I have two date palms in my backyard that came with the house. I would like to find out if someone on here is knowledgeable enough to answer the following questions:
How old are the trees?
How can I get the dates to riping to be edible? http://s30.photobucket.com/albums/c335/rockethobbit/Date Palm/ |

| You have 2 canary island palms & it does look like u have a male & female but it's not the edible date palm ur thinking of, that's a Phoenix dactylifera( true date palm) sorry! Still very nice palms. I would put them in the 8-12 year range for AZ climate. |
