Trachycarpus fortunei syn. Chamaerops fortunei, Chamaerops excelsa

Good job I’ve got lots of #trachycarpus-fortunei as they’re bulletproof too

Oops a daisy I acquired another #trachycarpus-fortunei from my local tropical friend who is turning his garden more into an arid garden from a jungly palm garden. The root ball on this one was a whopper and Mr vec is still cursing me 😁😁😁🌴

Ooh how great!👍👍👍

Lucky you Julie, good chap to have onside! The new trachy’s great... Hopefully Mr Vec will recover soon 😆 xx

You’ll have the national collection soon 😄😄🌴🌴

That looks fabulous 🌴🌴

Wow fabulous 🌴🌴🌴

It would have been a huge rootball!! 💪🏼 💪🏼 💪🏼

Wow. @vec. Can you help please. When do I start watering me Cannas. They are in the shed and slightly damp. Do I cut everything back and feed or leave them. 🙏🏻

That’s me sorted Bestie @vec Tea & cake under the palm as I’m tea total look forward to it in the Summer 😍😘

I potted mine up last week, gave them a bit of water as they were dry and have them in the shed still Sue. Hoping they show signs of life soon @suerichards

I'd bring them indoors onto a warm bright windowsill and water when they're dry. Cut back all old growth. When I buy tubers, this is the time of year I start them off @suerichards

Poor Mr Vec. He has my sympathy. Pour him a Pina Colada under the palm and he will forgive you 🍹
