Ah comon, no need to gang up on the young guys in the crowd. I'm pretty sure he's still got a year or two on me! Im 21 right now, does anyone challenge that?

tropicman,

Actually he is the 1 out of the 3 who look like his mom. Take a look at my other post reguarding the washys from B.C and let me know what you think

Looking better than mine at the moment,mine only have one maybe two leaves,mine are about 1 year and a couple months old,how old are these?
Have you been getting very many warm sunny days yet?

tropicman,

Its been sunny for about 2 or 3 weeks now. It's been in the mid to upper 60's and the last few days have been in the mid 70's. Today was 86 and humid. It's supposed to cool down next week to the lower 60's again.
SO you got through that weather ok?

Your weather has been running the same as ours,but not so sunny rain,then rain,and rained again!
Smaller towns are having flooding,plants look a little overwatered,but they saying sunshine for the weekend,if they don't change there minds again!
I had my washy's in the ground,when the april freeze came,covered them with a plastic trash can,some lost a few leaves,no shere pull,but they have yet to start growing again,all that rained has cool the soil temp down a few degrees,will have some big growth gains when june gets here and the temps get close to the 90* mark.

That palm is a big one you really did good. I hope you enjoy them for years to come. Do your kids like the palms?
