That's great!
I want one, when I can find a large specimen.
The good folks at Junglemusic more-or-less refused to sell one to me when I confessed I got down to -16 oC this past winter.
Darn responsible vendors!
Please keep us updated. --Erik

:D :D :D :D
Maybe I'll find one in Texas. Plus a big Brahea!
No road trips to Texas in the plans (merely St. Louis), but next year I'll try to get down to the Lone Star state again and scoop up palms from folks who don't know I'm any Okie until they see the plates on my truck burning rubber out of the parking lot....

We're getting way off topic here!
Last time I was leaving Texas (stop me if this sounds like a Country song...) I bought two "Sabal texana" real cheap. As the man was loading them he saw my plates and said, "Palms won't grow up there, ya know?"

As for weather sticker, I still see it. It reads 90 oF right now. Still Summer down here, ya know?
:D
