Looks good

Down

O

I just bought two of the hybrids, Washingtonia Filibusta from HD for $20 each. What a deal!! These hybrids are listed as hardy to 10⁰ F. I will still protect it the first year until it establishes good. Mine look a lot like your Robusta. Beautiful palms. Be careful of the thorns though!

inaturalist has a checklist of animals and plants found in Pickney Island. As far as pines are concerned on the Island they have the Slash Pine, the Loblolly pine and the Longleaf pine (Pinus palustris).

It's sort of the northern limit for slash pines according to a habitat map I'm looking at.

such a beautiful landscape

Is it terribly humid there? I love the scenery!

My wife’s grandparents live in hilton head and we only live 3 hrs from there so we go 3 or 4 times a year so we always make time go to pickny island

Been to Hilton Head but not this place, looks like a neat place, I guess they have a visitor center, any place to get food?

Wow so cool in Co there is only 2 palms windmill palm and sabal minor those are in grand junction

Thanks for sharing! I just love palms

Great job. I have 2 almost that exact size i have grown from seed, just trying to find a space for them in the garden. Subbed.

Sabal minor, Sabel palmetto and Serenoa repens are the only three palms that grow on Hilton Head Island? You don't see the Needle palms because it's too marshy? I've been there once, nice place.

This is an impressive primeval habitat. Thanks for the interesting video. Greetings from Switzerland

Cool scenery man. I love Hilton Head area.

Looking great!!!

Looking good. It should do pretty well for you.

Sorry about the background noise, there is a small pool filter right beside the garden beds, I will try to avoid it next time!

Do you get black spots on the leaves we do in the UK 🇬🇧

spear pull RIP im sorry my dude❤

Looking good!!!

Wow that's impressive. What was your absolute minimum?

Just so everybody knows. This guy ain't from the South.

I hope your palm survived the winter! I’m currently trying a king palm in zone 9a🌴

My sabal palmettos are in 6" terracotta pots on my balcony. Both still have only one shoot, but one of them is over 10 cm tall now. I initially planted the seeds last September. I'm hoping they do well. I'm in USDA hardiness zone 10a. The coldest winter temperature here is in the lower 40s, and highs are in the 80s by April and 90s by June.

How tall does it get

This reminds me of my first ever windmill palm I planted in a cold zone 7 or 6B. I cooked that thing, thinking (in my early years of palm experimenting) there's no way a palm can survive much below freezing. Now decades later I realize how tough these palms are. I may have lost a few smaller ones from this winter but in my marginal zone it's all about location and microclimates. My thoughts on losses are that it's good to weed out the weak ones. Now I have a local source and they seem extremely hardy. Thanks for sharing, even if it's the ugly side of our hobby.

Man that looks great! I have had the worst luck with needle palms. I just want one that size in the future, lol. I think I've lost another one from this winter. It spear pulled and I've got zero growth from it so far. The only one I have that continues to survive, lost its' main trunk a few years ago but its suckers keep on going. Beautiful palm you've got there!

I just discovered your channel. Looks like a lot of good info, I'll have to check out some of your other videos. I grow the basics of cold hardy palms too in my zone 7B. What region or zone are you in, if you don't mind me asking? I need to do a video update on my smaller windmill palms soon. It was another cold winter here and my biggest windmills practically defoliated again but should be ok. I don't do much in the way of winter protection. Looking forward to seeing your other videos. Thanks.

Can they grow in part shade? How much sun do they need...at a minimum?

What was your transplant process & how long did it take you to see growth? Thanks

Great job 🌱

Coccoloba uvifera .Amazingly beautiful plant!! It really looks like a ficus of some kind, alltough it belongs to the Polygonaceae family,and ficuses belong to the Moraceae family ❤

Were all of these planted the same time?

I dig your channel. Good job.

Great spot

Pour Corn on it

Jellyfish from the species “Chiropsalmus” are considered deadly. Although not as deadly as Chironex and Irukandji species, Chiropsalmus species have caused deaths.

Your European fan palm looks AWESOME! And I saw another video where it defoliated... and grew back tremendously large in a single summer. Wow! You can be successful just treating it like an annual, since it grows so fast. Of course it would weaken if it defoliated every year... but it's great how fast it recovered a thick head of fronds. For protection: I wonder if hay and straw and leaves actually help with the cold. My thought is, it's like a zero sum game. It may help protect it for a few degrees by slowing down the ingress of cold getting to your palm, esp its tender bud area... But at the same time, it also causes it to warm up more slowly from daytime sun later in the day.... And if it's an extended cold for more than 24hrs... For example, the day high is only in the low 20s... The air is penetrating 100% through whatever filler is stuffed around a palm. Only active heating would prevent the temperature from equalizing during a sustained cold (>24hrs). Passive protection is just pointless for extended cold, except to also block sun and air flow. I have no basis to say anything. This is my first winter growing cold hardy palms. I should really shut my face. But... Everyone zone-pushing with passive protection methods... they never seem to show any obvious benefit. It seems like a huge wasted effort. If you go nuts and box a palm into some enclosure, and basically build a mini greenhouse around every palm... without an active heat source, i think it's worse than nothing. And while high winds can suck out moisture and dry a palm, the 'wind chill' factor plays no role on plants. So enclosures may block wind, but that's also only barely helpful, if at all. Lastly, enclosures may be used to also keep a palm dry during cold spells. But the moisture still gets in. And this is also a double-edged sword. It may slow the ingress of water, but it would also slow air flow and slow drying, too. I'm very torn on protecting a palm unless it includes an active heat source. And even then, I feel it's just a pointless game delaying the inevitable. I mean, wrapping palms with lights and heating it during winter... that's not 'zone pushing'. That's what greenhouses are for. Eventually everyone wrapping up their palms for winter will get so sick and tired of doing that. Or, the palm will get too large and cumbersome, etc. Sorry. I'm just ranting. Don't mind my long ass comment. I'm in 7B in NJ and just started growing cold hardy palms myself. Needle. Sable minor. And Saw palmetto. If they can't survive on their own, I guess I won't be having cold hardy palms.

Love Needle Palms!

This bad boy is so awesome! I need to get my hands on a big one. Mine are so small.

Looks gorgeous and quite an impressive size! Amazing palm!

Wow beautiful Plants ^^ Like 15 My friend, thank you for good sharing Have a good relationship

Beautiful palm

Да уж круто..

Wow, it looks great! Impressive growth rate as well. That's one happy Needle palm right there!

Ur needle palm looks good 🌴
