I wish Tropicanna! If I thought that were true-oh...the things I would be planting here! I did find a Phoenix sylvestris at HD this summer that I planted in the yard-I figure that if it dies, I can get my $ 70 back-right?? lol

Here is a Livistona chinensis that survived this winter-of course I wrapped it several times when it went down to 17 degrees, but it looks pretty good. I find that more and more I am not paying strict attention to the zone limits that are put on plants. I think the L. chinensis is put at zone 9.
