Hey all,

I’ve been taking pictures since I planted my windmill palm here in maine. I’ve found it interesting to see the trunk development and the crown shoot upwards. Hopefully the palm continues to weather our island here on the coast, it’s already endured two winters as we go into a third here. The comparison picture is two years, the left one is when I’ve planted it and the right was this august.

curious if anyone else has progress pictures of their plants and how much they have grown?
