Default transplanting large sagos over the weekend

first time I tried this method don't particularly like sagos but they were huge and free off craigslist..it worked

saw this.... Free Plants - You dig

had to have em.








A Little Root Pruning









Since my hoist is still at the original site I had to use my house to get Sago #1 off my truck


about 5$ worth of scrap wood I threw together


All I had was shells from my driveway



Silt/sugar sand, i usually like to wash all the clay out of it but it was 10pm and was tired as hell






Palm #2, Much easier/smaller.

Unless someone has tried this they can't truly appreciate what you have accomplished. Those things are HEAVY. Congratulations, they look great?
