Great garden! Yours T. fortunei is growing very fast. I remember some old pictures you posted a few years ago. http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y255/wxman81/IMG_2400.jpg http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y255/wxman81/c2616459.jpg http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y255/wxman81/IMG_5070_zps66ab15fd.jpg

Thanks Jim! I'm just a beginner compared to you. I'm impressed with your effort in overwintering exotics in zone 5

Henoh_Croatia

Hello jmdupuyoo! Well I'm not in zone 4, 5, or 6 but in zone 7. I have some success with Butia odorata, Brahea armata, Sabal minor, Rhapidophyllum hystrix, Trachycarpus fortunei, Trachycarpus wagnerianus, Chamaerops humilis and Chamaerops humilis var. cerifera. All my palms was protected without hea...

great Yuccas everyone! Henoh, let us know how Y. carnerosana grows for you.........very slow in my climate and will die back in cold winters. Tim Tim, only one unprotected seedling survive last, not too cold but very snowy and wet, winter. It's seems that carnerosana is not long term Yucca for my c...

Henoh_Croatia

Good looking Yucca. I have one seedling of this species from Mesa Garden. Tim, your blooming Y. cernua is the same mother plant that bloomed two years ago, or sucker?

Henoh_Croatia

I don't have experience in pollination but definitely I will try with this instruction http://www.bennyskaktus.dk/Y_hybrids.ht ... te_by_hand.

Nice colors and nice garden

Welcome Palmofan! It's good to have you on board.

Hi Horst, welcome to the forum!

Henoh_Croatia

Tim, good job!

Winter is still here in northern Croatia and most of Europe. The end of March and it is almost 20 cm snow outside

Still waiting for warm Spring.

Henoh_Croatia

Everything looks good!

Juvenile palm is almost 5 years old. Old palms have old irregular names on the label - Sabal havanensis. I assume, because of obvious beginning of trunk, it could be Sabal louisiana (or Sabal minor var. louisiana).

Henoh_Croatia

Barb, second picture is also mother plant with close up flower stalk (flowered in June 2008).

This article describes the genetic comparison of Yucca populations along the southeastern coast of the United States. Genetic data clearly support the intersectional hybrid origin of Yucca gloriosa.

Henoh_Croatia

Barb, I'm not sure. Maybe 15-20 years from seed to this stage. There is an another one, much bigger than first.

Henoh_Croatia

Erik, thanks for update. Here in Zagreb Botanical garden Sabal minor was frozen and died in winter 1984/85 after prolonged period of cold weather with same absolute minimum temperature -24C. Today, they growing Sabal minors only in big pots. Also they have one big Trachycarpus fortunei planted outsi...

Good overwintering job. I've never heard for Trachycarpus takil natural stand in Bageshwar.
Did you buy that T. takil from here?

Henoh_Croatia

Andy, you have very rare hybrids. I'm not sure for that T. takil. Could you take a closer shot of ligulas. This is my small T.takil with characteristic ligulas. I ordered seeds from Europalms "true Takil" 2 years ago. http://i400.photobucket.com/albums/pp84/m_bara/Palms%20and%20other%20exo...

PalmNinja, good job!

Henoh_Croatia

I have one outside covered with bucket. I'm not sure what to expect because leaves have brown spots on them.

Henoh_Croatia

Nice looking and healthy plants!

Henoh_Croatia

Hi Andy, there is no whether station so I don't know exactly what the lowest temperature was. My weekend house is cca 20-30 km east from nearest whether station. According to the official measuring lowest was -15.9 C on December 13th 2012. http://www.tutiempo.net/en/Climate/Zagreb_Maksimir/12-2012/1...

Butia odorata is marginal here with passive winter protection and I live in zone 7b. Rhapidophyllum hystrix, Sabal minor, Trachycarpus fortunei, Trachycarpus wagnerianus, Chamaerops humilis var. cerifera are all hardier here than Butia odorata. That is my experience so far. Here is my Butia in zone ...

Henoh_Croatia

Promising collection for your zone. You need to try also with Chamaerops humilis var. cerifera with winter protection and cold hardy Sabals sp.

Henoh_Croatia

That's a lot of snow. A month ago we were also hit by heavy snowfall.

I think, no lower than 0F. That part of town has a good micro climate due to urban heat.

Here's winter update of my Yuccas. Most of them is now in poor condition due to 70 cm of snow. Yucca glauca http://i400.photobucket.com/albums/pp84/m_bara/Palms%20and%20other%20exotics/P2020057_zpsf01031b6.jpg http://i400.photobucket.com/albums/pp84/m_bara/Palms%20and%20other%20exotics/P2020045_zps4...

Henoh_Croatia

Looking good Aaron. Keep us updated. I got seeds yesterdey from Tim. I've already put them soak in water overnight

Henoh_Croatia

Definitely one of them is Y. flaccida. If is Y. cernua natural hybrid, one of the gene donor is probably Y. flaccida, as you have mentioned earlier.
