Thanks for those beautiful pics gang!
I have a Canary Island date palm & a washingtonia (I think) fan palm that I bought in TX 10 years ago. I also have 2 pygmy date palms & 2 sable's I grew from seed and a sago palm. I was into palms before citrus & nanas!
The first 2 are very healthy & BIG now..in 30 gal pots. They stay in sunroom winters & get carted out on deck for summer. Every 2-3 yrs, I root prune & they go back in same pots so that keeps the size down. The CIDP is 6ft high from soil & fronds are 5 ft long. I love my palms!
That big Bismark posted by Sterling made me drool.
