Ok, Dr. Butler shared a couple snapshots he took of me on Saturday in the largest (10 hectare) population.

Me holding a seed stalk, too early for the seeds to be ready yet birds have already eaten most:

Nice to see those Sabals again Erik.
Thanks for the update.

How are those Nannorhops doing that he gave you?
I have some seedling Nannorhops arabica, and wow, are they ever blue.

Regular green Nannorhops, I understand, like to sit in water so I have them sitting in 14" pots in a bucket with 4 inches of water.
A few frogs in there too.

All the little palms he gave me look good. I should do a separate post on them. Fan leaves when I got them--no strap leaves from Dr. Butler!

I also examined the small population further north, at Beaver's Bend. Again, they looked healthy. Here is one I took a photo of this morning, once my camera was working:

I love Dwarf Palmttos. Why do you think I have so many in my Garden.

Insane P.N., how do you protect them in winter there?

Hey, Erik! You made it! Nice pics, nice workshop and nice and friendly guy making us surprising the sabal palms in Oklahoma! Thank you so much, buddy!

Erik, it's always nice to see them in natural habitat. Thank you for sharing your and Dr. Butler pictures.

Best regards,

Mario

You're welcome.
Very pretty down there. Poor.
One of these years I'll do the paperwork to get legal permission to harvest seeds, but I am not comfortable doing so sans permits.
