Default Re: Palm Trees ?

I just saw a new palm in the Palm Courtyard Villas in Duval that the 20 mph wind earlier this week flipped right up out of the ground. That 15' palm had a root ball smaller than a bushel basket. My palm that size had way more than a cubic yard of heavy root ball and stayed put. You will never be sorry that you bought quality. Also, palms with dribblers (that are seldom necessary) often die of over watering and root rot.
