How to Move & Transplant a Trachycarpus Palm . Part Two

Banana Joe moves the palm into our driveway by the arbutus tree. The spot he chose was where we had been dumping some coffee grounds, leaves and grass trimmings. Part Two of Two. Check out part one.

@@brianperez3514 Transplant shock and possibly not enough water. They will do that when stressed

BananaJSSI thanks

@@brianperez3514 Never ever let a newly transplanted palms root ball dry out. Always keep it moist

Joe, I can tell you're not a guy who likes to sit around.....Great relocation for the new palm with the red house in the background. I guess the same principles are true for moving Musa Basjoo or taking off the pups. Ensuring taking off some of he leaves to reduce stress of transplant,? Cheers

Hey about to try and transplant 3 mature palms. Curious though, when you say transplanter fluid, what are you referring to?
