Where have all of the Waggies gone?!

Post by NYCpalmMANIAC »

Why is it to hard to find trachycarpus Wagnerianuses in the united states?! In Europe they sell them like they sell gallons of milk! Does anyone know where I can purchase at least a three foot waggie in the hemisphere (eastern US)?

Both of mine came from west-coast suppliers, Cistus and Jungle Music.
I was at Cistus today and saw several waggies for sale. They do ship.

i think those were only up to 10 gallon or so, but i dont think they ship large plants. jungle music has been my best over-all shipper of palms.

Phil at JungleMusic has fabulous plants, and can source anything you may want.
He just doesn't ship to Canada because of the phytosanitary cert hassles.

Or he may even refer you to someone on the East Coast, nearer you.

EDIT....sorry, (brain fart)....I just remembered that Bill in MA has fabulous Waggies, big ones.
He's not on here much but you can reach Bill through TIM MA or HARDYJIM.

yes, Bill in Attleboro, MA has many trunking waggies. You can drive up and pick up.......not too far from NYC. I was just at his place & greenhouse last weekend.
