[The Codfather]

What were you doing in Scumerland

[kata]

I was reading a site last week that said in the future Trachicarpus f will be left behind for hardiness in favor of waggie x fortuneis.

I am not sure if to buy the Tf now or the a Trachi waggie.

Nice looking palms there RedS!!

[redsquirrel]

dont believe it about the hardiness Kate, theres nothing in it.
waggies get their popularity because they dont get scruffy in winds

[kata]

Thanks RedS

Do you think we will get more frost RedS? I am waiting to order another 9 year old from Michael.

This has come through winter in Lancashire just great and my ordering another was always dependant on my first being still here come Easter.

[Vagetarian]

I haven't moved far from the palm seed collectors category yet.

So with that in mind these are definitely all seedlings, mostly still with strap leaves:

Trachycarpus Fortunei
Washingtonia Robusta
Phoenix Dactylifera
Dypsis Lutescens
Chameadora Elegans
Ptychosperma Nicolai
Ptychosperma Lauterbachii
Syagrus Romanizoffiana
Wodetia Bifurcata
Beccariopheonix Alfredii (well, it's grown half an inch of root)

Plus a handful of unsprouted species, a B&Q Phoenix canariensis_CIDP and a Butia eriospatha from Amulree.

I expect there are several spelling mistakes there.

[Simba]

Very limited collection for me owing to a lack of space...
Trachycarpus Fortunei - x5 of various sizes
Trachycarpus Wagnerianus - x3 of various sizes
Trachycarpus Naini Tal
Trachycarpus Latisectus
Jubaea Chilensis
Washingtonia

Do have a couple more on the wanted list though:
Chamaerops Cerifera
Trithrinax Campestris
Trachycarpus Princeps

Revisting almost a year later....

Trachycarpus Fortunei - x4 of various sizes (2x4ft & 2x3ft trunks)
Trachycarpus Wagnerianus - x3 of various sizes (3ft, 2ft 1ft trunks)
Trachycarpus Naini Tal
Trachycarpus Latisectus
Trachycarpus Princeps
Chamaerops Cerifera - x2
Jubaea Chilensis
Trithrinax Campestris
Rhapidiophyllum Hystrix

Tempted to get a bigger Cerifera, but no more space after that....

[JoelR]

Sabal "Huge Leaf" (seed from Steph)
Sabal palmetto (from an EPS member)

Nannorhopps ritchieana (ju ngle seeds)
Trithrinax campestris (Ian Potterton EPS member)

Good sized plants killed to date:
P. canariensis

[eddie]

Some of you really have a big garden!

I've got 4 Washingtonia, 1 Trachycarpus F, 2 Phoenix canariensis_CIDP in a pot and a green cordyline. Would really like to have more but don't have enough space.
