    • @ScaryHairyGary
      @ScaryHairyGary Před dnem

      They can handle full sun. They were just need more water and fertilizer to keep them looking good assuming you were not out in some extreme hot climate like Palm Springs or similar, in which case they would need shade.

      Non if they are well established but 2 x a week 3-4 gallons per application of freshly planted.

    Whenever I see light yellow plants my first impulse is that some sort of iron chlorosis is going on and to put some fertilizer on it. Once I get over that I can enjoy it, this has got nice dainty foliage, a very nice plant. Thanks for showing it.

    wow, that's incredible, I really like these extreme rainfalls. People have to be careful about these things because these low areas can fill up quickly and people who stay in their cars sometimes drown. I think the electronics in their cars malfunctions and they can't even get the windows open.

  • @WillEberli
    @WillEberli Před 6 dny

    Wow, great examples of this palm. I found out about these when it was mentioned on Palmtalk. I figured you likely had a video on them, and low and behold, you had a few from over the years. I ended up buying 2 from your nursery and 1 martianus as well. I was never a fan of the fortuneii, but these are something else. Very pleased with them and the sun catches them from behind perfectly, the translucent nature of them is a great feature of these in particular. Excellent examples here!

    Mission Viejo checking in here - we have them in the same palm. Every morning they “chatter” nag at me to refill the grape jelly cups on the oriole feeder with nectar ports and spaces to hold orange halves. I find myself these days wishing I had such a pampered good life! Ha! Thanks for this very relevant narrative praising such a little beauty of the avian world!

  • @araucariasightings3247

    I live in San Diego and the orioles nest in my brahea edulis every year. About 5 years ago a snake literally got into the top of the tree and ate the eggs or babies. I came home and the birds were going crazy so I looked up and saw a snake in the tree extending out on the frond with huge lumps in his body that were either the eggs or baby birds. I grabbed my pole saw without the blade on it and got him off of the tree but it was probably too late. I didn't know that a snake could climb up a palm but he somehow did.

    Well, I can't believe you have not encountered this the 4 Oclock in your line of work. What the folks below have not mentioned is the seeds look exactly like little hand grenades, so you can't say the plant has not tried to warn you about its spreading nature. It spread from my neighbor and took over part of my front yard in Woodland, CA. It was not to hard to eradicate, but it took time. Also want to tell about a Jacaranda in Woodland that survived 15F in 1990 and continues to thrive despite neglect. I could show it to you as it has public access. I was just at your place outside Winters picking up a Mexicola from Jorge. I ran into this video as I wanted to look at your vid where you planted the pot too after slicing the sides. My wife is questioning me, lol.

    • @ScaryHairyGary

    Four O-clocks, have them all over my yard, drought tolerant, black seeds all over like crazy every year( that's how I started mine), Mixed colors on the same plants it seems, from white to deep purple along with mixed multicolored as well. Planted them along with Hollyhocks about 6 years ago and both have spread all over without watering... When they do get water it's even crazier growth.

    Artifical turf pretty much sucks. It has some perforations in it to allow for drainage but it never has enough. It will deprive that tree of water and make it very difficult to fertilize. It also gets extremely hot, so hot it will burn a dogs feet. But the worst thing about it is the smell that it retains and constantly releases from dogs relieving themselves on it. It is absolutely awful and nearly impossible to clean and get the smell out

  • @ColRubyDimplesManacha
