I love your Trachycarpus update videos. What a wonderful species of palm. Keep up the good work!

[@vincenzecalzone8666]

Really cool video Kris . Ive got a few different youngish varieties and I'm still getting my head around the differences. This video helps me hugely. The oriphyllus one at the end is stunning. Cheers 👍

[@SMARTEARMIN]

thanks for sharing! i would love to see the rest of your cold hardy palm collection

[@mariaa876]

Loving your vids . Your garden is beautiful .

[@williamfarragher2939]

Thanks for sharing Kris, great update video🌴🌴🌴👌

[@markborder906]

Thank you for this video. I have, after seeing yours, added a few Trachycarpus to my garden, all very small, most seedlings just starting to produce “proper” fronds, but I have bought a slightly larger princips (from Pan Global Plants) and, a month ago ukhrulensis from the Great Dixter Plant Fair. It’s great to see what I can expect from them.

[@YorkshireKRIS]

Thank you for the feedback, appreciated

[@JT-ok6re]

Love all your Trachycarpus! I want the dwarf nanus in my garden. Very rare type indeed.

[@northeasthardytropicals541]

Really nice collection toon of palms 👍🏼 🌴

[@diptimehta4160]

What a collection! Watching your video now I am not sure which Trachycarpus I have. Thought its fortunei but leaves are more joint till mid leaf and thin!!

[@pipsmith5767]

wow the palms looking great- the Trachycarpus Oreophillus looks incredible. Still cannot understand people saying T Manipur and T Oreophillus are the same palm-they look radically different. There has to be a time we will find out how hardy they all are.

[@johnnyrollerskates9270]

I love this video. would it be possible to have a similar video for all the non trachycarpus palms as well?

[@Redeleiser]

Can you please show the tags next time. It’s hard to understand their names sometimes. Thank you!

[@raphlvlogs271]

they look great when planted with ricin plants.

[@TheHamsterRoom]

Great vid

[@haroldbetterson1877]

Hi kris I’ve been looking forward to this video 😃 question please, when the lower leaves are going yellow is that time to prune them? I know you mentioned acidic 🤔

[@YorkshireKRIS]

If the leaves go yellow due to age, yes it's good to remove them. If because they are nutrient deficient then the correct feed can make them greener again.

[@haroldbetterson1877]

@@YorkshireKRIS thanks kris and if the leaves have snapped and are like a wobbly tooth would you trim them back or let nature take course. Happy new year!

[@sandorspalms]

Great video! NEW subscriber😀👍🇨🇦

[@tuppenceworth5485]

Names of the palms shown as subtitles would be nice.

[@YorkshireKRIS]

Fair point

[@henkdevries4687]

You don't have the nainital/takil shedding its fibres? About to buy a huge wagnerianus with round leaves and maybe strip the trunk :) what is the purple plant near the end

[@KARLSEN-vj9xt]

Hi Kris.. Amazing palms! Very interesting to see how variable the growth rates are.. I’m looking for a Trachycarpus Ukhrulensis. Just wondering if you know anywhere in the UK that currently sells them? Seems a really hard palm to come by! Cheers..

[@YorkshireKRIS]

It's really hard to find this palm now. Good luck!

[@pippipster6767]

Good video, thanks. So, from all these, what’s your recommendation if you had to have only one of them?

[@dz1515]

If you have a takagii, can you upload a video of it? I just got 2 x 1gallon of these palms and want to see how different they will look from either the waggy or fortunei

[@larroyo1973]

@Daniel Zin Go see KZbin channels BananaJSSI & Gulf IslandRock videos. Aka JungleJoeC (JoeClemente & Wendy) He's got a palm nursery & BB in Salt Spring Island Canada. Takagii are Trachycarpus Fortunei x Wagnerianus hybrids. Joe has videos of these palms in many sizes. Very elegant. Look for his Trachycarpus Hybrids videos. Perhaps he'll drop you some links.

[@kris662]

Hey kris, kris here 😂 can I ask where you source seeds or seedlings of some of these varieties? I want to do something similar as I love these palms and curious to see what survives and grows quick here in Scotland

[@YorkshireKRIS]

It's really hard to find most of these now as many were only collected a few times as seeds from the wild. You have more chance sourcing from Europe or private sales

[@fernandotomz]

Ah thought nova was fast growing :( might move mine now )

[@YorkshireKRIS]

Nova is fast growing. Mines in a sheltered shady location to keep the leaves in a good condition. Princeps hybrid is by far the quickest.

[@RichardABW]

Hi Kris. Do you ever sell or hybridise some seed? An Oreophilus x Nova could be pretty special.

[@YorkshireKRIS]

As far as I'm aware seed has never been produced in cultivation as still relatively new to the western world.

[@dibblethwaite]

Kris, I wonder if you can answer a question. I have a couple of trachys I raised from seed years ago that was supposed to be princeps. There was a lot of fuss online at the time about fake princeps seeds and I've always assumed that's what I got and they were just fortunii. They don't look any different to fortunii my untrained eye. This year one of them flowered in September. My fortunii always flowers in Spring. Does this Autumn flowering mean it's something different?

[@YorkshireKRIS]

The first rounds of princeps seeds offered often turned out to be nova or "Green princeps" I would imagine that you probably have nova plants rather than princeps plants.

[@dibblethwaite]

Thanks Kris.

[@HardyPalmTreesUtah]

I have heard that nova flowers a bit earlier than other species of Trachycarpus, I haven't heard as much as several months early in a different part of the growing season, but perhaps the unusual flowering pattern is additional evidence that you have nova.

[@drewncarolina6381]

Great video! Have you given any thought as to what you will do once they start to flower? Perhaps some crosses? Or search out locals to produce pure seeds?

[@YorkshireKRIS]

I'm hoping in time I'll be able to get pure seeds and hybrids. Getting oreophilus to flower would be amazing.

[@iAM_B4TM4N]

Hi where can I find Trachy Princeps and a Nova seedling to buy? I’ve been looking everywhere in U.K., love the collection btw

[@YorkshireKRIS]

Try hardy palms or in EU mypalmshop.

[@raphlvlogs271]

where did you got their seeds, were they expensive or rare?

[@YorkshireKRIS]

Most were bought as seedlings

[@dz1515]

Is there a difference between takil and takagii?

[@YorkshireKRIS]

Yes takil is a true species and takagii is a fortunei waggy cross

[@dz1515]

@@YorkshireKRIS did you have a takagii in that video - I don't think so, right? Did I miss it?

[@YorkshireKRIS]

@@dz1515 not in that video as I'm mainly concentrating on the species

[@raphlvlogs271]

they are miniature washingtonias.

[@YorkshireKRIS]

What are miniature Washingtonias?

[@larroyo1973]

@@YorkshireKRIS l think LO was affectionately saying the young Trachycarpus resemble Washingtonias.
