Way to go Rob! I think those 2 should work for a few years, till it out grows them. (Do I see 3 barrels coming next?)
Really tho, looking at that palm, you may need to keep the barrels from leaning to far with a 2x4 or something to keep it centered. I didn't get much growth on mine this year for some reason.
Maybe because it's the 1st year in the ground. I'll be using the same ones for protection that I used last winter.
Hay, Good excuse. I'll bet that 2nd palm is planted there because you just wanted another one.
