Just a quick survey of opinions on mulching of containerized palms. I am in the process of transplanting and top-dressing my palm collection and was wondering what growers think about mulching potted palms. Most of my palm collection is containerized (exception being Trachycarpus and Sabals), and spend much of the year outside. Is it okay to mulch with a variety of cedar mulch. I do NOT overplant my palms so they are in containers big enough to accommodate new growth but small enough to dry out quickly (as my summers can be wet). Mulching would keep it neater when I hose down the plants, reduce soil temps in containers, and be more attractive. PS. I was also planning on mulching my citrus collection.
