Default Re: Anybody here have a date palm in their yard?

I don't have palms in my yard, but they're the commonest boulevard trees in Ambato. The city grows and maintains some truly spectacular:
Canary Island Dates
Medjools
Pindos
and Quitos

I find myself wishing I lived in the sector that uses Medjools on the street, but alas, I'd have to marry a football player to afford the down-payment.
