Young windmill palms in front of a modern D.C. house

[@Lo1XDImNoob]

Do you think those palms will live? Those are petty small to be planted in the ground in my opinion, especially in a place like DC area in the winter. I have 2 young windmills, maybe slightly larger, they are in pots on my deck. I still think they are too small so I might plant them in 2 years, but with pots I can bring them in my basement. I also have sabal minor 3 gal I planted I got from northeast ohio palms and 4 musa basjoo, 2 in pots each about a foot tall, one in the ground about the same size, and I have a 4 ft one. Do you have any basjoo in your yard? I would think in DC they might even fruit one year if you have a lucky winter. I also have a eastern prickly pear. I would love to have a trunking yucca rostrata but those are no where to be found in any garden center near me. Cool palms though

@@Lo1XDImNoob They will live if we don’t have a deep freeze for a number of years, another 2014 deep freeze soon could definitely kill them. Basjoo grows great here and does fruit, sadly I don’t have any in my yard though. Sounds awesome, you’ve got a lot of cool hardy palms and exotic plants. Keep us posted, thanks!

Wow that’s nice the windmill palm looks happy

[@palmplanet]

Yep happy healthy little palms!

Rock Creek Park area? That beautiful house must cost a pretty penny, should pan out so we can take all of the house in, they've built a luxury townhouse but I guess they must own some land.

[@palmplanet]

Yes no doubt. Pretty cool!

[@dmvarearailstransprod22]

That house seems really luxurious, doesn’t it?

[@palmplanet]

Yeah super fancy house.

My name is Orazali. I live in the Republic of Karakalpakstan. I'm very interested in palm trees. Do you live in America? what state do you live

[@palmplanet]

Wow, if I’m not mistaken the climate is quite dry there, beautiful region. Yes I live in Maryland just outside of Washington, D.C. in the U.S. I love palms as well and have lots of videos of them. Thanks for watching!

i just got my first trachy here in south jersey. it’s about 2-3 feet tall and is experiencing transplant shock as we speak. hopefully she pulls thru soon so we can get some growth

[@palmplanet]

Sorry to hear that! Hope it pulls through. Keep it watered and keep us posted. Good luck!

[@jiafeiqueen]

@@palmplanet thank you. i will update in a few weeks if i remember to come back. last night i watered it for 15 mins which actually seemed to help the fronds uncurl again (only a bit tho). i’m planning on fertilizing maybe in a monthish. i’m just scared to overwater since i do have clay soil (i mixed it with some tropical soil bc the clay soil just wasn’t working out) so maybe that’ll help

[@palmplanet]

@@jiafeiqueen Gosh mine’s going through the same thing, mine looks bad right now. Keep us posted, good luck!

[@ОразалыКурбанбаев-ж6ъ]

I plant palm trees

[@palmplanet]

Awesome!
