BTW, If you have not secured it with stakes yet it may be a good idea to do it asap, otherwise the rootball may rock or even worse the whole thing could fall over.

Coming along great. I'd go for black fence as others have. It really throws out the palms and those white pots will look stunning. icon_thumright
