Two small Oregon mules

Both were purchased from TCHP a ways back as small strap leaf seedlings. The first one has been in the ground for a year and I think the second has been in two years. What surprised me is that with our awful weather this year I saw cosmetic damage to 50% of my Chamaerops but these two have none. The first one gets less sun so is a little more graceful looking. Due to the arching nature of the fronds overall height is about 3’.

I have one in the ground that I got from Raintree Tropical that I planted in full sun two years ago and other than a few burnt tips, it didn't sustain much damage. My Chamaerops Humilis Cerifera had some browning, and like you, I was surprised it came out of the winter looking worse than the Mule.

That’s great to hear. Sounds like a few of us are having luck with these.
