Post by Meangreen94z »

Specifically my palms in Lago Vista, Texas.I figure the beginning is as good a time to document growth rate, hardiness, etc. Sorry these pictures were at dusk, lowering resolution.

As it turns out, the above palm was misidentified and not a Trachycarpus. Other specimen have been found producing offsets. Upon closer inspection it appears to be a Brahea, most likely the silver variant of dulcis
