A few trachycarpus fortunei growing under some bamboo

Here's a few trachycarpus fortunei I have planted under some bamboo. At the time I was lacking a better space to plant them. How far should I space them out? Any ideals how deep the tap roots may be?

cool seedlings. I'm sure they will get large some day......I'd weed them out so they are at least 4 feet apart.

Thanks Tim, that's what I was wondering. Any ideal how deep the tap roots might be? 12inches?

That would be a good guess, just about 12inches.

Thanks Aaron I'll be careful not to damage them then.

Those are nice Dean.
How exciting it would be to go out in the yard to find those!

Your recent cold hasn't touched them with the bamboo for canopy.

Are you relocating all of them throughout your yard?
Or do your next-door neighbors get some?

I guess I'll put them in pots first and grow them out. Then I'll find a place in the yard. Maybe replace the sagos.

Must be nice to germinate them in the yard and then place into pots.

I do the reverse
