Archontophoenix maxima - The Walsh River King Palm, One Of The Cold Hardiest!

[@davidcasella2934]

Archontophoenix is one of my favorite Genus of Palms. I have a 7 gallon & 3 gallon Archontophoenix alexandrae that both made through 26 & 27 degree freezes in January 2018! Another Awesome Palm Review Christian. 🌴

Awesome, and thanks!

Hi David, Archontophoenix palms are my favourite too! Especially Myolensis. Were your Alexandrae palms protected from the cold? How much damage did they get at these temperatures?

[@bongamav]

I am going to try and germinate these again, they are lovely my first attempt failed

Hi Christian, my favourite Archontophoenix is Myolensis! Which one do you think will do better in a protected 9B area: A. Maxima or A.Myolensis?

[@ryanboyle801]

How old would you say that pay was? I have some 3-7 gallon size, hope to see them that tall one day

[@davidcasella2934]

That Palm is probably less than 10 years of age.

They can grow VERY fast. I have one, with about two feet of clear trunk and a three foot crown shaft, that I planted about six years ago as a small one gallon.

You forgot ALEXANDRAE at the start of the video.
