BB Tom, got a question.

Huntington Beach, CA(Zone 10a)

Tom,

My neighbor behind us is having his whole backyard redone with a tropical look. He has a pool and wants to surround the lot with palm trees. It is a basic rectangular lot and the plantings will all be along the block walls. Can you recommend a nursery around me that carries lots of tropical plants for him to look at? Can you suggest any plants that are very low maintenance. He has a landscape guy doing all of the actual work, but I've used him for masonry and he doesn't know much about plants.

Any help you can give, would be appreciated. I live in Huntington Beach, 3 miles from the ocean.

Thanks,
Donna

Hi Donna!
Let me think about it.
I'm going to go on another List and ask around.
The Good news is that your in HB and thats close to Mission Viejo where I've seen a lot of nurseries in the past.
Give me a day and I'll get back to you.

Donna,
Here is a contact that has many palms and he is a TON of information.
John Strazicich 714 817 7947
He sells rare Palms and other Plants and has plenty right now. I saw him today and bought 3 Fishtail palms
Caryota's Gigas, Urens and No.
He is a very nice guy who gave me tons of information and I know off the bat he will be able to direct you to sources
in your area.
Good Luck and tell him Bamboo Tom the guy that bought the fishtails recommended you.
See Ya!
