Here is a trachy on Salt Spring Island, BC that was removed and hauled away to be tranplanted. :D

Here's to all the global warming pushers, may your winters be -30 below and four feet of snow in your driveway. Because I want you happy.

Trachy

Post by Wes North Van » Sat Aug 06, 2005 11:33 pm

Thank Aaron,
It produces thousands of seeds every year. I have hundreds of small seedlings. My Largest male is just out of the picture to the right. It is about 2/3 the size of my female. I have another trachy that should flower next year. It will be interesting to see if it is male or female. I am guessing male because of the narrower trunk.
I wonder if a trachycarpus takil would survive in your climate. If you stay dry during the winter and put it out of the wind it might do alright. I am planting a small takil next spring. It is about a 2 gallon size right now.
