HOw do you handle the pods that are produced by Sylvester Palms?? As you know Sylvesters have BIG thorns and you cannot get to the pods very easily. This year we let them drop and its a mess. We have river rock at the base of this palm and it has turned black. I am trying to pick up most of the seed pods but there still is a black residue whcih I hope will eventually be washed away with the rains...but im open for ideas???
