new way to find,sell,buy palm trees,seeds, and palm products

16 years ago

I hope this helps save people a lot of time. I found a new way of finding any palm tree or palm tree product in the world. You can find palm trees, nurseries, fertilizers, freeze protection, or generally anything affiliated with palm trees at http://www.sellapalm.com .

There are pictures of trees for sale and seeds. You can search by size, price, type or names, by company name, area or locations near you. This is a new website, but i think that it will be a great help as new ads are pouring in

Note that "Palmexpert" posted this the same day that he registered at Gardenweb; he has also posted the same message on at least one other message board. Looks like pure advertising--which is against Gardenweb policy in the first place--and possibly bordering on spam.

If only we'd had this discussion a week ago. My nephew is a master glass blower and just finished a fellowship at the Toronto Institute of Art. He JUST this week packed up after a visit home and in preparation for his relocating to Vancouver Island. He met a young woman from Toronto while studying in New Zealand, fell in love, and is moving to the island where she teaches. While in New Zealand, he blew all the glass steins, bowls, flasks that were used as props and backdrops in the Hobbit movie that came out last year or year before. I'm going to link you to a thread that discusses soil/water relationships and the impact that relationship has on plant vitality and your ability to help your plant realize its genetic potential. If you do spend some time at that thread, please ask the others if they know where a suitable bark product can be found in Toronto. This link will take you there. The fastest way to a green thumb isn't so dependent on how long you've been at it, as it is on how much you know. Al Here is a link that might be useful: This one should be helpful, too.

water and soil questions for my windmill and mexican fan palm

I kinda answered your other post, but this one for the same info has more info from you. You may have just resolved the problem with yellowing. TOO MUCH WATER! Watering 2 to 3 times a day is WAYYYYY too much. MAYBE... and I am going on my own experience here, 2 to 3 times a week, give a good deep watering. You mention the soil is very sandy. While the palms do like sand to a point, I'm wondering if there's too much sand. Perhaps it might be a good idea to dig them back up and amend the soil a bit with some small wood chips, composte, top soil and vermiculite. I have found that the palms seem to like this type of soil. They don't like to be wet all the time (caused yellowing and can cause weakness then death), but they also don't like to be dry all the time either.... and less so before they are established. Just some thoughts there. ):)

Sago Palm Distress-- Brown Fungus?
Q
Comments (15)
I had to get my husband's help with the photos, but I wanted to make a few notes about them: 1. you can see the "clouds" of fluff that accumulated once I tried to scrape/wipe the stuff off. 2. the photos are kind of bright-- the fluff is actually more of a medium brown color than it appears, and there is a thin film of the fluff covering most of the caudex (I'm learning new terms!) and especially in the crevices of the scales. 3. Although with the photos all enlarged you would think otherwise, the stuff really isn't THAT easy to detect until you rub some of it off, and the caudex (under the fluff) is super-firm and the branches are still deep green and very spiky-- no wilting (except for the patches of fronds that I have cut off). Also, no black spots anywhere, which is what most of the rot pictures I could find looked like. I've been on every website I could find (and thank you for the links-- very informative), but I couldn't find a description of this stuff or any pictures of plants that look like mine does, so I'm having trouble diagnosing the problem. Does it look like rot? I'm stumped.

Yep, I agree. He also has it posted on ebay in the palms section, which is odd. The website had very little to offer when I looked.

there is nothing on the website for sale that I could find.

TOTAL SCAM

The link below is to the International Palm Society palmtalk forum which has a for sale section with REAL growers posting palms and seeds for sale.

Check it out

Just an assumption, but I think he's referring to the sellapalm site, not palmtalk.

Hello,
it's me again. I didnt mean to come off as a spammer. I was just recommending that you may want to check the website out. I think it will be helpfull later when it gets going. It may not be helpfull to everyone, but through the years that i have been in the industry, i could think of a few times that i could have used it.

He also sent the same basic message to the CFPACS forum and the Cycad Jungle forum. You must be very enthusiastic about this site if it is not your site because it took a lot of time to search out these sites and send the message to all those people, especially if you have no financial interest in it. Since I see that you are a palm expert, we will all be very happy that you are here, and can answer everyone's palm cultivation questions as time goes on. Having the first post be something commercial just looks bad, but I'm sure we will all see why you are here once you start answering everyone's questions without any commercial content.
