Tropical paradise in BLainville, Quebec, Canada zone 5a
Hey guys, i just made another tropical oasis here in north shore of Montreal. I planted 2 Trachycarpus Fortunei and 2 small Washingtonia palms. All will be protected next winter with my winter protection box. I posted few videos on my youtube channel, expression tropicale...almost all in french, sorry about that, but all my customer is french thats why.
I bought a big Washy from Mike too...my favorite palm. Theres some pics...enjoy..

Here's to all the global warming pushers, may your winters be -30 below and four feet of snow in your driveway. Because I want you happy.

Yes, these palm are from Mike. Now i have a problem after transplanting my Washy, almost all the leaves turned brown starting from the lower leaves. But the new leaves still green and in shape, still growing. It was good till i puted in ground, 2 days after the leaves turned brown progressively. I called Mike, and like me, we think is du to a transplant shock. The roots ball lost all the soil during the transport and the palm still outside the ground during 2 before i transplant it.
There s some pics i took today. If there someone had this problem with the Washy, never had a problem like that with all my other palms. I know the Washy are tough. So bad its happened, it was so looking good...i gave it some epson salt and watered it but not to much.

Yeah, sounds like transplant shock if all the soil fell out of the rootball during transport.
Wonder how long the roots were exposed to air.
Hope his beauty recovers.
