Nice Pictures everyone. Here's one for you Jim, I thought about yours as soon as I saw this monster specimen. We got bombed with snow at least a foot maybe more and It's super heavy :roll: I haven't gone out there yet and I really don't want to. http://i670.photobucket.com/albums/vv62/Billma6-7/IMG_...

Here's another cool one that blows your mind just looking at the fronds.
Picture does Zero justice trust me. These palms are crazy looking, I went back several times to look at it in different light.

Coltrane, I'm not sure if this was mentioned about the larger palms, when I scanned through I didn't see it. Larger palms store lots of carbs up in there trunks after years of happy growing, that's another reason bigger more established palms can take more abuse. They have reserves to keep them goin...

I actually saw two of them at a couple different Home Depots last year in Daytona. I wish I know what they where at the time because they where nice sized, they wanted 59.99 for them which I thought was expensive for a 7 gal. I asked Jim on the phone if he knew what they where, but he said he didn't...

Nice call on the book Jim, that was the name of it. I can't wait to read it! I wish it was published more recent, but unfortunately it published when people in the USA where smarter :roll: so it's most likely more scientific. I'll report my thoughts when I'm done with it, might be a month or two tho...

Jim, It's funny how even on cloudy days clear plastic can heat up like that, saves on heat that's for sure.
