There are computerized monitors for both tanks. They show a constant temp over the whole winter at about ...

Thanx barb. When spring hits and they get a lots and lots of rain they should perk back up and after some leaf trimming. I really liked the butia. My wife said just replace it but I would rather bring this one back but it looks so awfull I am filled with doubt.

macario

Well barb when the wind get blowing off the lake it comes from all angles. Its not very often but I do get some nasty east winds off of the lake michigan. I have no idea how long it was like that. If it was a week it saw 0 to 7F at night.

Thanx allen. I broke out the concentrated fungicide. I completely covered all three palms. I completely covered the bud areas 3 times. I fixed the area of the cold frame. When I fixed it I noticed almost right away a 15 degree raise in the temperature in the coldframe. I wrapped the butia some to ke...

macario

Man I screwed up. I went outside today because I had a bad feeling and checked on the palms. The sabal palmetto is still green and ready to be uncovered. I went into the cold frame and to my horror my butia looks fried. The leaves are all windburned. The trunk is green and the leave stems are green ...

macario

I hope you did get what you wanted. That one true takil that you see pictures of in books in rome was supposed to not be as cold hardy as T. Fortunei in any form. There were other T. takils that were supposed to be planted around the same time as the Takil in rome. Most of the Takils planted north o...

I drove through that area before and was one of the places I had picked Filifera seeds from. There is no way they can get rid off all those filifera. They are so abundant everywhere, public land and private land. It would be like trying to remove the sand from the desert lol.
