Look at the shear number of plants! Wow :D
Even Spike's hidden.

Congrats, Don, not a brown tip on any palm/plant.

My spindle appears to be similar size to yours. Wonder how much longer it'll take to really see the

spindle shape.
Any plans for when they hit the ceiling? :lol:

you could bust through the floor, dig a hole and set your palm down in said hole. then each year your could dig it deeper. Thats what I'm talking about.
Kent in Kansas
where it's cold in winter (always)
and hot in summer (usually)

Hey good idea,first I need a jack hammer floor is 18 inches of concrete,that alone might by me 2 extra years!!!
Then again keeping it in the same pot for another couple years ,Bonsai affect might be easier than anything!!!!
