@bananatree94 …I don’t know about Washington state, but in Texas these Mexican Fan Palms (Washingtonia Robusta) can grow thirty feet of trunk in ten years. The roots won’t destroy a sidewalk but the trunk width may.
some palm trees doesn’t need much water just like a cactus
Now it’s time to get planting!
@TomZentra no, plam “trees” aren’t really trees at all… they are monocots, and they are their own species that grow up on a trunk LIKE a tree but they are not one. plus you wont need to worry about its roots destroying that sidewalk.. this palm is planted in washington state. it most likely will NOT get that big in her lifetime. BTW trees are plants.. genius. lol.
¿Como recuperar una Washigtonia robusta de 3 años despues de una helada severa? Gracias

This isn’t a “plant” as you said in the video; it’s a tree. Planting a tree near a sidewalk is a very bad idea – as seen in your video. The roots will move the sidewalk, making big cracks in it. There is no easy repair because the tree doesn’t belong near the sidewalk.
we planted ours this yr in the midlands, England and we are already into a frosty winter, duuh. At least now i know it is a grass tho, so prune with a lawn mower I guess.
They actually are a grass, not just like a grass. Careful about cutting those fronds!
Are you crazy ? A lot of sun ? Look what a lot of sun did to your leaves ! Palm needs moderate to high light but never direct sun. And if you cut off the brown tips the leaves don’t grow anymore.
i live in Washington State too and i just planted like 5 of the Windmill Palms . If they survive this winter then i’m going to order some 12 ft palms for the spring of April! how exciting lol
i have 2 palm trees in my house i have no clue what kind they are can you help me find out how
you see its not a tree because its more like a grass haha
I have a redneck palm growing inside and also a Midnight Horror palm which it gets its name since its really stange looking and they get pollinated by bats. I want to get a bottle palm which are small but really cool look.
the best palm trees r grown in middleast specially in Iraq, the friuts r very sweet and also they sqeeze the seeds to make oil its a devine tree, everything about it is great, and its the most beautifull tree in the world, i grew some of them in my apartment and they r 7 years old now,but very small if u want to see em i could upload a video of em.
@crazitaco I’m not a expert but it may be trachycarpus fortunei I don’t know but maybe
today in class we were talking about palm trees and my science teacher said that the palm trees that grow like crazy in our area were actually native to india. we are in the south coastal bend. (texas)
do you know what kind it is palm it is?
bitch dont know wat da fuck she talkin bout they can get up to 70 feet tall
Thanks for the info.
All palm tree’s have fruit.
but very few of the fruits are actually eaten commonly (in the western world). The main things eaten from palms are coconuts and dates. Acai berries are sometimes eaten too.
A lot of palm’s fruit are really small tho, and have a large seed inside them.
cycads on the other hand, which some people call palm trees, are not actually palms, and have no fruit.
