Brought this from Lowes for $9 in February 2012.
Brought this as I dont have one. Im sort of developing an eye for palms that I dont have or are a little rarer to find. home Depot has an endless supply of Queen and Foxtails, but not much else.
Im surprised its still there. Thats got to be a good sign. Although im sure it shouldn't be a quarter the size that it was when I brought it.
Surviving
Doesnt like where it is. I think its a bit hot and dry. Maybe once it establishes itself, but from experience it looks like it will probably die. When I got here in November it was pretty poorly, and all I did was water it and its a bit greener, so its not so much the hot position but the lack of rain. Essentially it hasnt rained for over a month.
Still alive. I think it has gone through a bit of a drought and is looking a bit worse for wear, but its still alive and hopefully working on its roots.
Just planted this.
