Hello all. I have had my windmill in the ground for 5 years now with no problems.

This may sound dumb but I live in coal country and I got a windmill palm In the ground for 5 years now. What I'm looking to do is put coal around the palm tree I have mulch now and think coal would look neat. Is there anything coal could hurt the palm tree. Thanks[/list]

Looking down the middle there is nice growth and no spar pull. Also it's pushing up flowers again. Would a f...

The forecast looks just above freezing for the next week or two. My pindo got sick last year and in the fall I did some construction and my friend backed over the pindo with a dump truck so it's RIP for the pindo. I got the both of the palms from chilly palms in April of 2012 windmill was a 30 gallo...

It's been over 90-100f inside the hut even with me venting it during the day but with the sun beating on the hut. I'm going to take a chance and uncover it on Saturday.

The lowest I see for the 15 forecast is mid 30's night time lowes

With the warm weather coming does anyone think its ok to uncover my pindo. I'm here in zone 5

fertilize it if you can it worked for me. I used 15-5-15 make sure it has magnesium.[/quote]

Is it to early for me to fertilize here in pennsylvania.

Sorry if this is in the wrong place. But what can I do about yellow tips on my windmill. Can I cut the tip off because I know Once there yellow they stay yellow. It's on almost all of my leafs. Thanks

came out really really well. did you buy it that big or have you grown it for awhile? does look a bit like a waggie to me as well..although it seems when waggies get that big they look like trash with small crowns and large trunks but that one looks fantastic. I got it about that size it is right n...

Nice mike. Just wondering if you are leaving the bananas uncovered. I'm sure we are not done with frost yet this year.

Thanks for the info I'm going to take it off tomorrow ill try to post some pics thanks again.

My Windmill has about 4 foot trunk. I put it in the ground 3-31-12. I kept it around 30f all winter with one night it got 18 in the huts. Our lows coming up are around the 30f to 20f. Just want to know if its safe to uncover. I got a pindo also but I'm going to leave that hut on for now.

I have a Trachycarpus I put in the ground this time last year. I'm in zone 6a in pennsylvania. The weather is not going to be great here does anyone think its ok to uncover my windmill.
