Peachy, I noticed that your a dog lover like myself. When you by that cute little puppy you know that it's only going to live 10 to 15 years if your lucky but that does'nt stop you from buying it because you think of all the enjoyment that it will give you. It's kind of like that with marginal palms. They may grow great for years but you know in the back of your mind that about every 10 years you may get a hard freeze that could take it out. Remember it's the failures that make the success's that much more rewarding. I've been growing a Coconut here in So Cal for 8 years now and if it died tommorow it has been totaly worth it. I think your problem is your soon going to be going into winter. I kind of lose a little interest in gardening in the winter too. Hang in there and don't give up on the rare stuff! Stevo

Shes a real beauty Tony. Looks like good genes and good care as well. thats what the uresana should look like, IMO.

Here is a close up picture of the palm. The second picture is of one that was pot grown and planted out this June. As you can see by the picture it is much smaller.
