@@richf_tropical_garden_projects I'm not expecting any damage. If we had a few nights of -3 and lower then maybe there would be.

Just had a phoenix robelinni delivered

@@christopherjones9826 Nice palm 👍

@@YellowbellytropicsInteresting to know it was that much warmer near house. Must radiate heat through night

@@richf_tropical_garden_projects Hopefully, because if we get many more nights like this there could be some dead plants next spring

@jasonspalmparadise 😬😬😬 im thinking the same 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

@@DJSupaflyguy 🥶👍❄️

@@stephenkeeble6857 It was below zero last night, but not as low as -3 yet. It's those days where the frost doesn't lift that I think does most damage. These cold snaps come and go, we might not get another for a month. It's so unpredictable now that nothing will surprise me. 😕

@@christopherjones9826 You always seem to get plenty there

@@essexhognose1808 Lucky to avoid it this time. I agree, I think the worse is to come now as it freezes. It's only November too so any damage now might leave some plants hanging on over winter 😔

@@asaventurasdozemoura5770 Muito obrigado, I was in Rio it is awesome the plants you can grow there. 🌴👍

Thanks for watching 👍

@@albey1816 I'm not sure exactly, but I know they are not cheap. I was lucky my mate was taking down his conservatory and gave me some. The more flimsy stuff is cheaper and is good for overhead shelter.

@@essexhognose1808 it was about 2 foot tall. It has doubled in size this year and has branched off.

@@estherterrier6400 thanks, we could do with a better summer. Let's hope winter isn't too bad this year

@@cherylmart6338 It would be amazing to do that, no need to protect anything in winter either

@@neilyenny hi Neil, thanks yeah it's not been great but still got some decent growth. I have never heard of it but just looked it up and it seems ideal. Cheers

@@jasonspalmparadise It can be invasive. But we have heard that with loads of other plants before! Will cover the ground though.

@@YorkshireTropics cheers, it's getting there now. Just need to fill in the gaps with stuff. It's part I find hardest, trying to find plants that fit in small gaps.

@@EmmasNatureEscapes thanks I appreciate it

@@Harry-qy5gn I heard that too,i will give it a go thanks

@@jasonspalmparadiseI don’t have an established T Tex, just about 7 1st year plants grown from rhizome. So I’m not an expert by any means!! But I’d be cautious about forcing it to spread by severing the roots as I understand that once they pop they just can’t stop, so will be great for you initially but will lead to problems later on. Thinking about it, I’m a bit worried now that my young plants will be prolific spreaders as they were propagated by rhizome division…

@@palmsexoticsuk2194 I really want to have some more around the garden, but your right I will probably regret it in the long run. It still has no pups yet

@@GrowTropicalMK cheers mate

@@jimspalmsuk5098 Cheers Jim, it's not exactly where I want it but it is getting there year by year

@@jasonspalmparadise It all takes time 👍

@@Knapper94 yeah it's been slow this year, hopefully winter will be kind. Putting the stone on the arid bed will really finish it off. Nice bargain, can't beat that 🤣 iv seen them survive with no protection in a garden near me.

@@albey1816 thanks, I dig it up and bring it into the house

@@albey1816 I will try to in the next couple of weeks, iv got out of the habit of doing them.

Thanks for subscribing 😁. Palms tend to like most conditions so I'm sure they will be fine.

@jasonspalmparadise thanks. 😀 I have a mature cordyline the height of my bedroom window. On a clay base. So hopefully the Trachy's like the change. I have a large butia capitata but that is in a 130L container. It is my most expensive plant ever. 🌴

@@GardenMyselfHappy make sure the drainage is good if your on clay, one thing palms don't like is wet feet in winter. Iv seen the expensive butias, great palms.

@@jasonspalmparadise thanks 😊 will add some grit and coir should help.

Been in ground about 3 years

Thanks. Just bought a bunch and plan on planting in next few days. Finding so much varying information on these

@@kylehobart5194 just keep them well watered for first year and they will just do their thing

I am more concerned about root depth and expansion. I'd like to place a row at the back corner of my house. However the septic tank is about 5' from that location. I see some websites claim roots go 8' deep. I also see some say they will just expand forever if you let them whereas others claim they will only get to about 4' wide

The rest will go between fence and a concrete patio with about 7' space between.

Wow you really do love figs. It can get to be a big collection when there is a plant you really like.

It does, iv noticed they have started growing back already, so need to keep on top of it

Thanks 👍

Nice one Janine, more people should grow them

Thanks,yeah some palms are crazy expensive now. A couple of years in the ground and most palms will grow away nicely.

Cheers mate 😁

It is very slow to put on real height, just seems to stay bushy. It does look like it is starting to think about it now 🤞 keep the faith it will grow eventually 😀

Thanks

Thank you

Thanks I planted them close to each other last year and think they look better this way

Haha yeah it was a long one

@@jasonspalmparadise long ones are good

I have thought about it but others have told me they tend to die off if you do it.

Thanks. The Agaves always impress me and they grow so fast in the ground. Roebellini are great palms, I won't be risking mine in the ground either. I'm glad you enjoyed it 🌴👍

Thanks, it's a bull rush it spreads all over the pond but it's good for dragonflies as they climb up it and hatch out

I agree, much better 🌴

Cheers Vincenze. I think the yellow makes it look real tropical and with the stiff green fronds the palm looks totally different now. Il be keeping the suckers off now till the trunk is about 4 foot or so.

It's amazing the difference it makes, I'm sure you won't regret it 😃🌴

I think so too 🌴

I am tempted to take a few more fronds off as well, I think it's one of the only palms that looks good with less fronds. Hopefully we will start getting some decent weather next week.

I would think that the energy from the suckers will go into the main plant, so in theory it should make it grow stronger and taller. The suckers will start growing back straight away though so it needs to be kept on top of. If you don't like it, in a few years they will grow back.

Looks like a more tropical version of a trachy 😃

@@jasonspalmparadise definitely

It's surprising how different they look, I bet the 20 year old one looks amazing. Someone commented that they have one with no suckers, so maybe there is a single trunk version 🤔

Cheers mate

Good luck with your garden 🌴

@@jasonspalmparadise Thanks!
