My trip to Gary Hollar's a while back :

I got some Trachys and Birmingham's at Gary's Nursery in New Bern , NC that day . I checked out his biggest Birmingham when he gave me a nice tour of the place .

If the video at the top of this post doesn't work I'll post pictures of that day too .

He's got some fat Palmettos . I'm not sure everything survived the 2018 cold event that he said was a 100 year cold where he , like me , had 8 days below 32F . South of there in Wilmington it was much milder but New Bern was about as cold as my location in Winston-Salem when normally New Bern is milder than me . I'll need to get an update and visit there again soon .
