Hi my friend. I have too Palm tree Fiji pritchadia in my house. I live in Brazil
Who's the grower?
I think this is some sort of Yucca filamentosa. At least a variety of it.
Whoa looking slim dude!
I started watching your videos a couple of weeks ago after I got my first palm tree and now I’m a palm fiend, I just ordered some seeds of a few different cold hardy palms and I also bought a couple of banana plants today
Ahhh, a travesty to see Foxtail palms planted in somewhere like Maryland. As an Aussie, i can remember when these were first discovered growing in far North Queensland during the 1980,s The seeds were so valuable, $30 each people would go up there with chainsaws and cut down the trees to get the seed, luckily they were very quickly placed in protection by the government. Also, i,m thinking that the other plant people are calling yuccas, look alot like New Zealand Flax, Phormiums. They are cold hardy and flower like that. I wouldn,t put money on it but looks very similar
Those look like typical Yucca filamentosa (Adam’s Needle) to me, but I could be wrong if there are any characteristics that you saw up close that says otherwise. If it is them, that’s neat because that is (kind of) towards the more northern end of their natural range.
Isn't Yucca Gloriosa
Thats a yucca filamentosa.
It sounds like the palm species that was named after him, really ought to be renamed
Saw some in fort Myers
Only now do i know Bismarckia comes in two types , Silver Bismarckia and Green Bismarckia.
@1:40 😳
You should definitely collect the seeds next time it produces, I wonder if it’s still there
The coco de mer takes 7yrs for fruit to mature and 2yrs for the seed to germinate
Coffee ☕️ grounds..thank me later
Looks more like a butia than a date palm
A trend that I’ve started to notice here in Mississippi, is magnolias either being planted too close together or in someone’s front yard planted 10ft away from their house
You’ll find the weirdest things when you go beach combing lol
I live in palmetto, I’ve been noticing it for over a decade. It’s bad. People planting Phoenix Sylvester’s all the new developments around here they all die from it quickly. It kills queens also. Even seen Pygmy Christmas and foxtail and silver palms die from it at a lesser extent then the palmetto/ Phoenix palms. It’s really sad. Seems the Royal palms are immune

I think the best way to tell the difference is the seeds, Chinese fans have kidney shaped seeds
I like the candy bar
lethal bronzing is understood to be a phytoplasma infection, which can be thought of as a bacterial infection. Antibiotics like oxytetracycline seem to provide protection to palms in the early stages of infection.
Love that you’ve got some videos coming back out!!!
Here in San Diego we have fusarium wilt which is killing many canary palms and also in the last 10 years we got the South American palm weevil which has already killed most of the canaries and also on occasion kills so other palms. It is really sad to see all these old canaries dead everywhere.
Do some sabal palmettos have a natural immunity to the virus? I've read it's spread by a bug.
My plant does have pups didn't want more then one
Did you see the mouse in the background?
I had a frond from a large Royal in Boca Raton fall onto my car windshield. It broke the windshield.
This guys a crybaby 😢😢😢
Do you know how is the Santa Ana coconut doing?
Have this palm in my yard in Florida Satellite Beach! Gets taller than reported! Very robust trunk!
Thank you for the video. Did you nick the seed first? If so how did you do it?

I love both palms. Love the way the royals look when they are tall. Very stately. Plus they both do well in hurricanes and don’t tend to break concrete like oaks do. I feel the royals and queens take sometime to establish when planted. Once established they do well with the foxtail needing a little more fertilizer and water.
It's a sad day when attorneys are in charge of how palms are trimmed. Our family had five full size coconut palms on our property on O'ahu, lived there for years and no one was conked. But what else would you expect in a litigious society like ours.
Love all your content! It’s helped me a lot with my own palm garden!
Great to hear from you again! Welcome back. I hope you return to making regular videos again.
A Palmfather video showing up in the feed is like finding a $100 bill in the couch. Know you're busy, but these are the BEST, and NO ONE does it as well as you do!
Mile not Mike. Autocorrect smh
Selbe is beautiful of you haven’t been there in 7 years you prob haven’t seen board walks bridges waterfalls and have a kids area now. I agree they do g have a ton of palms like sunken gardens which I love. You been there Juan? You can go to the to ringling museum and grounds for free on Tuesday. Pretty beautiful place and grounds . Massive ficus trees. Selbe is too expensive I agree. I must say tge flamethrower palms there are quite impressive now . Very girthy beautiful trunks. I might of took some seeds off the ground lol. There’s a garden on st Pete by downtown , maybe Mike both of downtown lots of really nice tropical palms. Got quite a few seeds from there got baby growing in the yard. The Montgomery palms are incredibly fast sprouted and growers. Seeds are like 90 pct germination rate. The survived 30 degrees few years ago too with no issues . Love your channel man
Thank you! Very helpful. I love palm trees 🌴 😊
Bismarck palm tree seeds
I have 2 of these in my yard in the east bay of san francisco. They are beautiful.
I planted one as a baby sprout 8 yrs ago it’s now a super thick towering monster about 50ft
I’d like to plant one in a tight quartered-off section near my house which allows for only about 6-7 feet of growth height (by 6-7 feet width). In Phoenix, AZ (gets half day shade)
I’m in NW orlando and just found out today that a neighbor down the street has a coconut tree. I’m going to go check it out tomorrow and see if it’s fruited yet. Promising bc I thought for sure it was too cold here.
There are some warm areas in Orlando that can support Coconuts that fruit for sure!
@@TheCfkingfish we are in a cold area of Orlando 🤷🏼♂️
In the place i usually work there is like 4 of these, i've been there almost 4 years and no seed yet, they should have 5 meters tall, i'll try with regular npk and some pure potasium to see if. Greetings from los cerros de Veracruz, México.
