Hi there Jay....Looks like you're all going to be busy planting them up real soon! Must say I like the look of the 'palm protector'...he looks as if he has his eye fixed on somebody!! What breed is it...a mastiff possibly?? Hey I've just spied a second one in the cab! No one would dare steal palm with those two there.
Its very nice weather here in the UK at the moment with temps reaching 20C already... the norm would be no more than 15C if very lucky at this time of year, but we could still get overnight frosts through till the end of May..sigh. My palms are enjoying the extra boost so hopefully they will put on some good growth this year. I have lots of new spears emerging so things are looking good.

Hi Gill. Thats great to hear about your weather and your plants! Warm weather and new spears are always good things. I'll definitely be helping The Virginian Plant all of those. The problem will be finding a spot for them. I'm sure we'll manage. LOL!

You're absolutely right about the dogs. They are Cane Corso Italian Mastiffs. They used to be breed as Roman war dogs. They are very loyal to there owners. Very strong but not as aggressive as say a Rottweiler. I would never own one but they are beautiful dogs. Sean from Chilly Palm breeds them. They are worth a fortune.

Hey Jay, for the brief period that I was there I had a great time and it was a pleasure meeting everyone! The trip back to Lynchburg (actually closer to 4 hours) was much nicer with my new palms in hand! Keep in touch
