Hello. We recently had an Oleander tree cut down we had planted years ago. It’s now gone and we’d like to plant a small palm tree in a large pot we have to replace it.
We’ve seen a few relatively thin multi-trunk palms (or such) around with fine fronds. We think those may be a good fit there. Max height like 10’. I googled and perhaps it’s a yucca tree. Question is - where in the TV general area is a nursery/garden center that may have small trees as this. I would want to procure it and plant in the large pot myself. TIA for guidance. |

We have grown several palms from seed, collected from round the base of the parent.
Ours are Queen Palms, so they would be too big for a pot after maybe five years, but you could maintain a steady stream of babies and replace as necessary. I think we planted 40 seeds and six germinated successfully. |

Fairfield and K&B are your best bet. Pots dry out quicker than in ground plantings, so a Yucca (or any other drought tolerant plant) would be your best bet.
