Wes, your zamia and yucca collection looks great. Your plants are really getting big. I have a few zamia's, but they kind of take a back seat to my palm and tropical plants. But after seeing yours and Steve's pictures, I'll have to rethink placing some in the garden beds between other plants. Thanks...

The last one I bought in 2007 was from Harbor Freight. Bought it online for like $50. It pushes about 1300 gallons per hour. You can see them online. I recommend if you want to buy one to call the 1-800 number and then you can buy a 2 year warranty for like $4. Can't get the warranty if you order on...

Nicely done. I am growing a couple of sabal minors in ground in my zone 6 garden so I share your enthusiasm. Mine are doing great also, but I cover mine with leaves (in winter) and plastic to keep the rain/snow/ice out. Keep up the good work, maybe you can create a super cold hardy variety of s minor.

Thanks for the nice comments. Wes - if you make it to KC , let me know. Steve - I use any container I can get my hands on also. I just so happened to buy some nice pots many years ago at a garage sale. In fact I keep an eye on garage sales for planting containers (obsessive). I dig alot of plants up...

How is the summer treating you?
Just a couple of palm related pictures of my backyard oasis. Most everything seems to be growing very well so far this summer. We've had plenty of rain and lots of heat, which is great for palms and bananas and tropicals (but you knew that). The first pic shows a coconut on the left and a wodyetia b...

drum roll please .....
On April 12, 2009 , I uncovered my little palms trees as described in post #1 on this thread. My camera is not great and does not do the little palm warriors justice , but they came through winter in excellent shape. we had a handful of nights near zero (0F), but of course the little palms were cove...

I wonder if we (zone pushers) would have any problems with scale because our plants are not going to be exposed to others with problems and our winters are going to kill spores, etc. I realize the plant could be sold with scale and we would then bring it into our homes and the scale could damage oth...
