Good Day all,

I am looking to buy a T. Takil. Perhaps a few. I would like a decent size. No seedlings seeing as I have no luck with them.
If anyone has one they would like to sell or knows where I can source them please let me know.
Thank you all in advance.

P.S Has anyone seen the Sun in last few weeks?

T.takil

Okanagan desert-palms,

Thank You. I will look there. There is another place in B.C that sells palms and stuff but he never gets back to me. tropicals.ca or something.
Thanks again.

Hi Arctic Palm :sign2: ,

I'm one of the other nuts from Southern Ontario who is obsessed with palms. Considering you are located south of Hamilton Broadway Gardens in St. Catherines is the only place that I know of in Ontario that sells Hardy Palms like T.Takil. Here's their website.

Welcome to the forum,
Phil

PhilMusa,

I have visited Botanix last week. I bought a 15 gal t. fortunei. There were a lot of very nice palms and tropicals there. I could have walked around all day. Maybe set up a lawn chair.!!!
They have no T. Takil. Well, no large ones. I also contacted corollatropicals.ca but Ryan only has seedlings too.
Hard to come by mature trees in Canada. This I have leaned.

Botanix has a excellent display of tropicals. It is worth the hour drive just to look at. There are many types of palms, yuccas and bananas among others.
Like I told one of the owners, if I was rich he would have no stock.
Thank you for your help.!!
