Hope this doesn't sound frivolous but can anyone recommend/identify wall calendars devoted to palm trees?

I would enjoy such a fine sight of palm trees every day  :P

Give me a palm calendar any day.

I recall we had some a while back, but they were a bit too expensive at the time . . .

So what is an ok price for a calander with one nice pic for each month. A palm of course.

Anyone know why it is no longer  ??

I picked one up for $1 at the Dollar store! It is actually a 18 month, 2008 calendar for tropical islands, but every month has a shot of some tropically zoned palm. I know this may not be the best calendar for us palm nuts, but it is better than a calendar of cats!

I too am enjoying my 2007 Palmtalk calendar with pics from our very own posters.  PM Dean, maybe he can connect you with the source to get one.  You can set it up for any months you want.

Since we're in October now - the picture is a real purdy Lipstick Palm. I think it must be Bo's.

Ithought the Palmtalk calendar was quite reasonable.

Thanks Dean!  :D

Zone 10a at best after 2007 AND 2013, on SW facing hill, 1 1/2 miles from coast in Oceanside, CA. 30-98 degrees, and 45-80deg. about 95% of the time.

I do some experiments and learning in my garden with palms so you don't have to experience the pain! Look at my old threads to find various observations and tips!

I'm hoping there will be another calendar with a selection of this year's photos from Palmtalk.  Do you remember the photo contest and voting?  There were so many great shots, it was hard to narrow it down to 12.  And I agree with Bill, the price was quite reasonable.

Is there a plan to repeat the calendar this year, Mr. Moderator?

Scott,

Just saw your post now - must have missed it back in early Oct! Yes, the Cyrtostachys is ours, and that particular one is about 6 ft away from our kitchen window. My wife has that exact photo on her business cards!

IPS Palm Calender for sure but Please could we have a nice young lady standing next to it - purely just for scale of course. Clothing entirely optional.

Members wives welcome.

Im back!

I collapsed and was rushed to hospital where I have spent the last 10 days being dosed on loadsa pills and lots of needles - well the latter dont bother me as I am well used to the experience being a palm grower.
