Barrie that looks great.
Great pic.

Was that planted in the ground? I can't remember. I know it was a good size when I saw it.

Artic Palm - Side shot as requested.
Yes Wes, It's planted out and stands 4' tall, a far cry from it's potential size.

Cheers, Barrie.

I agree it looks awesome.
Barrie I know I have probably ask you before but what do you do for winter protection?

Wes,
So far nothing and only because it's the first year for this banana to be planted out. It was getting too large and heavy to move so in the ground it went. I'll most likely build an insulated plywood box to slip over it once temps become threatening.

Cheers, Barrie.
