Holy crap...a 10 foot CIDP for five thousand seven hundred dollars.
Plus 10% tax.
I told you palms were expensive in Canada, LOL.

...and they can't spell Oregon (Oragon :lol: )

Is this "Bad Boys" company the same guy who has them displayed at his place across from Reid's Corner? (I posted pics last year).

We're all in the wrong business, folks.
:P

Barb I met the guy selling these plastic palms three years ago. showing him live palms growing here year round :roll: . He has now been on the local Shaw cable community show selling plastico palm trees. I`ve had to add the word "LIVE" palm trees for sale to my sign I put on the roadway to specify they are not plastic. People actually thought I was selling the same plastic palms before I changed the wording on my roadside sign. My prices start at 75.00 ea. not 2500.00 ea. plus root cement LOL :lol: !!!

LIVE was a good addition to your sign, John :lol: :lol:

The only things I like about the plastic palms is they don't need winter protection and they don't sunburn.

I'm amazed people are spending that kind of money to buy plastic palms!
Each to their own, I suppose.

Pretty realistic looking palms, and when you said the prices were high I'm like blah, how high could they be :roll:
