    I enjoyed your video and it was quite helpful. We moved into a new home and a Robellini plant was placed in a small island of earth between two driveways. I did not pay attention to it while moving into the house. When I finally took the time to check it out, it was at least a month or so, and the tree had been planted some time before we moved in. As I was checking it out, I noticed that the base of one of the trees (it has two trees together) had a large hole and it was filled with ants! I poked at the trunk and some of it came off. I immediately bought some Taro Ant Killer and placed the container near the opening that was around one and a half inches in circumference.. As I examined the rest of the trunk, I saw small white balls attached to the surface of the trunk in one area... I pulled them off and disposed of them. Spraying the entire trunk and fronds with water mixed with dawn dish soap was next. I did this for at least a week. I am hoping that this tree will live. I cut all the brown fronds off when I sprayed and did my best to reach underneath as well as the tops on both tree trunks. I have not noticed any more ants. Is there anything else I can do?

      Thanks, I hate ants also. I get my pest guy to deal with them and look the other way, heh. Otherwise it just seems like an endless loosing battle.

      Make sure there is plenty of good soil around the trunks of each tree trunk. Clean the trunks as high up as you can without taking out newly cut branches. This gives ants and other insects fewer places to hide and live.

    A month ago I decided to take out a big part of the Base of my potted Roebelenii, it's Spring where I live, so I thought it will be a good time. With help I toppled it over to drill the Base of the pot out. The reason was that I'm living in a winter rainfall area, and was always concerned that it will get too much water during the none growing season. The roots also grew out of the drainage holes, and blocked it up. When we toppled the tree some of the roots that was growing out of the drainage holes broke of. The drilling process was quite hard because of the thickness of the pot, so there was a whole lot of shaking, going on for about an hour from start to finish, then the Base had to knocked out, so a lot of disturbance, and shaking done to the plant. Afterwards we took out the pebbles, which served as drainage, by doing that, there was a bit of space that had to be filled with soil again, which was impossible with the angle of the pot, so I put quite a laege heap of compost at the place on the soil underneath where the pot would stand.Afterwards I watered it thoroughly and really didn't think it would have hurt the plant.I thought the plant with soil, quite heavy, will settle itself down again. Now after a month has passed, I see that there's some dry leaves between the new spikes that has developed, so I assume that the plant have had some shock, and some root damage, but it was only the lowest roots, and the one's that broke of. The other leaves are not drooping or turning yellow, and the plant perk up nicely after being watered. Just some of the new fronds, not so much the 'sword' in the middle have some leaves that's becoming dry. Do you think that the plant will recover to it's former glory, and that the drying of the leaves will pass. I'm so scared that by wanting to do good, I damage, and possible killed my plant. I wonder now, say there was still some air pockets between the pot, and the new compost, it was impossible to know, if it will rectify itself Again? Sorry for the long explanation :)

      @EatYourBackyard  Před 2 lety

      So true, "I am saving you from drowning said the monkey to the fish as he hurried the fish up the tree", sometimes the more we intervene the more we cause additional issues. I think the thing to focus on is giving the tree the nutrients and soil conditions it will need to thrive (quality composted "cold" animal manure in small doses over time and worm tea). Also, it is good on that palm to leave the dead frawns on for as long as you can tolerate them, it gets energy from the dying frawns.

  • @urbantraveldesignmichael2189

    We bought a pretty good size Pygmy Date Palm and planted it in a huge pot. Great for a month, but now a few of the newer fronds are extremely dry and shriveled. Not overwatering, but could it be due to shock of transplant, too much sun, or nights that got to around 40?

    • @EatYourBackyard
      @EatYourBackyard  Před 3 lety +1

      BTW, watched the buro video on your channel, really cool. For the palm, they do like full sun, but I have some that also do well in the shady spot. The temperature could be an issue if it is very small. Many trees can't take it when they are little but do okay when established. Best thing is to not trim it, see if it can make it, takes nutrients from the dead frawns so good to leave them on. Hope you sub!

    I planted a couple of robellinis about 1 1/2 years ago. They were small, and I inadvertently planted them too deep so that the trunks were almost entirely underground. Both robellinis have thrived but they look like shrubs rather than trees b/c the trunks are buried. Digging them up and replanting them doesn't seem feasible. How can I trim these robellini "shrubs" to encourage the trunks to grow above ground and make them look more like trees?

    • @EatYourBackyard
      @EatYourBackyard  Před 2 lety

      Hehe, that sounds cool actually. These palms don't like to be over trimmed, but I would say time and trimming will get you to the desired result. They grow up rather slowly, which is great when in a small space, but takes some time to have any tree like height. Also, please sub to my new music channel czcams.com/video/Ahn2f8xC3lI/video.html

    • @EatYourBackyard
      @EatYourBackyard  Před 4 lety +1

      I dont think they will do well in a freeze. Best best is to grow them in a big pot, bring in during freezes.

    Any way to help these palms grow straight? I’ve seen some bunches grow sideways with one palm out of 3 growing out of wack sideways. Just purchased a bunch of 3 from HD, and want to try to encourage these to grow up instead of too sideways
