Hi Erik,

First palm I believe is Sabal species, probably Sabal minor. T. wagnerianus is enjoining climate of Oregon. Is that coonties from Florida hardy in Oregon? Chamadorea radicalis is also one of my favorite palm species.

Best regards,

Mario

Nice update! Your T. princeps is probably one of the largest in USA, if not in USA definitely largest in Iowa. Great job.

I just read in older post that your Agave is hybrid between utahiensis and neomexicana. To the eye there is more utahiensis genes.Cool Agave.
