YEA, RIGHT ON TOPHER!!!
Looks great. What zone are you, and are you going to plant it???
I seen a yard with two nice ones as far North as 40-50 miles North of Dallas.

Hey what's up wannabe ? you was right on the robusta they did finally germinate it took about 60 days but they did.
Now about my new pindo..........
I am in zone 8a and yes as soon as we can get some stable temps i will plant it.. Several around here does great !
I was so excited when i came across this one needless to say at that size for $50 i didn't have to think twice !
I was going to buy a beautiful king they had that had about
4 ft of trunk it was about 15-20 ft tall for $100 I was
realy suprised to find huge robustas , European Fan palms
Piccabeans , cat palms , windmills They are realy getting some great ones in.. it's going to be hard for me to stay away from that place ! I also bought a king that is about
10 ft tall it to was $ 50 and it has 3 trees !
Good to hear from you again .

topher2006,

Beautiful palm and a good deal at $50. Keep water out of the bud, especially during the cold months. I lost a big one due to a December ice storm. Died the following September.

I made the mistake of planting one in an area
that did not drain well and it has lost all it's fronds but 2.. I have the perfect place to plant this one it is
on a hill side and it stays dry and yes i will be giving it winter protection.

Finally got this in the ground..

Here is a link that might be useful:

pindos are amazing palms and tastey too- I live in atlanta and north of the city is an older pindo that has been there a long time with small leaves but a very large trunk -and delicious fruit yearly - from that palms seeds I now have eight pindo strapplings almost 1 year old that have survived 4 seperate nights of 18 degree weather here in the ground with aplomb and are now adding new leaves - I also havea full grown pindo and about fifteen others in this cold cold clime
