I'll be using this as a boder around all my trees to separate the DG from the lava rock that will go around the trees. This will go on after landsacpe fabric.

That's a small ring for a Butia... in a few years, the trunk base circumference will be as big as that ring. Do you plan on making it bigger in the coming years? Just curious.

They're very hardy. They can grow here in my z8a climate of Southeast Virginia without any problems (most years). This past winter was a rough one, with 14 inches of snow and quite a few nights in the mid-teens.
