Just figured out the website. I’ll stop by in the next 2-3 weeks. I have some business down in Walnut Creek. Can’t wait to swing by and pick up some babies!
Went to golden gate palms in Richmond yesterday bought a couple plants,very beautiful place!! I have a question on the king palms what’s the best vitamin product to help with keeping them green and speed up the growth any information would be appreciated.thanks again o will be back to your place for more plants soon.
OMG.. 😅🤣😂 you crack me up! And you taught me some things I was needing to know about my Queen Palms, So Thank You, for the laughs and brief education! I do have a question, how do you attach the latter to the tree? Thanks Again
Cool video,thanks for shating . Im a rebel so I Cut off the entire top of my My Mexican fan palm every year .I even cut about two feet of the trunk off at the top because I dont want it to get tall .Everyone freaks out but the tree fronds always come back strong healthy while the palm tree trunk remains short . Im wondering if its possible to force Queen Palms to remain small by cutting off the tops .Anyone?
I'm pretty sure the two palms in the begging of the video had disease on every frond . Even the new growth that wasn't cut seems to be leaning over quite a bit but they probably left it because it was green and they thought it world kill the tree.
That's like the people who come to a salon once in 6 months and become bald so they don't hv to come every month 😂 saving the spending on shampoo too 😂😂
@@ScaryHairyGary but doing that and making a palm bald leads to pencil pointing in the trunk.. someone did that to one of my foxtail palm that was near the power line many years ago, and now the trunk is thin at that one point..
Hey bud what is your website? I’m not seeing a link. I would like to buy some of your silver queen seeds. Loved the info on the Home Depot comment. Over half of the ones I bought died. I’m up in Chico (NorCal). The bummer is they struggled for two-three years before doing so and it’s a major time waster for my plans, lol. Your trees really are hardy looking and beautiful.
Here in Arizona I’m having a issue with the executive heat. It’s drying out the fans of my trees. One queen lost all its fans from 2020’s long super hot summer. This spring (2023) a new sprout emerged from the top (we thought the tree had died). We are having another brutal summer and that one leaf/fan dried up so here we are again with a queen palm that looks dead. Btw: Every palm in this are is having the same problem so I’m 100% certain that it is not a watering issue. I think this is the same problem that the trees at the beginning of this video are having. It’s n
I noticed this very same problem when I was first in Arizona many years ago. Queen Palms will survive there, but they hate it. They get nuked every year and so never look perfect. I’m guessing the foliage that grows from October until May looks good then they turn on the furnace and everything goes to hell. You should try growing royal palms as they seem to like the heat more.
@@ScaryHairyGary I do have a 20 year old pineapple pine that does very well in Arizona. The queen palms do well most of the time, but every so many years it just gets so hot at fries the branches.
Can i ask advice, i was going to buy and queen palm in Canary islands. Was told by palm talk member, you nuts , you need professional trimming every year and drops ton of fruit. Can you recommend a simular looking palm with that tropical look? Its for my pathe entrance way. I one side i have a Royal and the other i want a tropical coconut looking palm that self cleans? Ok in dry full sun and windy days . I thought about Triangle palm or beccariophoenix alfredii, or King palms, but kings need plenty watering. Or the Spindle palm ?
Yes, that hypothetically could've been a possibility, but not during the year I encountered this travesty. We had a very mild winter that year. But it is good to think outside of the box, which you did.
That is so hilarious 🤣
Very informative 👍
Nice one Gary👍👌

They trim palms like that every day in Florida. They call it the hurricane cut. I hate it!

You are so welcome. and I tie a ladder to it. Then, cross my fingers

Thanks. Curious to see how they trim the cut bases of the palm fronds.
I learned a few things.
Where did you record the video?... California?
The wind broke the whole pineapple part from my queen palm tree, is that means that my palm tree is dead and I need to remove it?
That's like the people who come to a salon once in 6 months and become bald so they don't hv to come every month 😂 saving the spending on shampoo too 😂😂
Whats wrong with that? That's my strategy.

@@ScaryHairyGary me too. I get my hair cut twice a year.

Excellent video thank you
We have a Kentia palm does the 45° angle still apply and the five Fronds to that Kind of palm tree
I would leave as many as possible on a Kentia as long as they look good and are not impeding views.
Does it hurt the trees to cut off the seed pods?
No, the trees will do better as all energy will focus on the foliage
It’s not the bark but the bite 😂

Boy, if that doesn't look like the 99 somewhere in the central valley (where the horribly pruned palms were)...
Yep. Exactly

Get a Kentia Palm. Very tropical and doesn’t need much watering.
Gimmie an exotic avocado tree. Just was able to buy #5 GEM (Gray E. Martin) and a #5 Jan Boyce! Wow!
I feel 😂
They could have suffered a really bad freeze

OMGoodness land the plane!
Someone didn't wanna pay thier bill maybe?
LMAO
Yeah, it was hard for me not to while I made that video
