Perhaps they will give you an email address to send your picture to and advise you by phone.
Plant clinics are held every Monday from 9 to 3 at the 466 sumter co. annex where you can have questions of the sort answered. If your tree needs to be cut down they can also give you a list of certified arborists. |
Great information. If you have an I pad or phone take a picture of the tree and bring it down to the Extension office. I have done that several times and always get the correct information. When I was down at the Extension office they told me not to plant those kind of palms in this area. They will have all the info.
