Cold Hardy Palms: The Complete Guide Posted by AJ Mid TN on March 10, 2026, 6:57 pm Big video release and I hope you all enjoy. Rob I honored your big mama needle in there

Cold Hardy Palms: The Complete Guide - Choice Award Posted by Rob N TN on March 12, 2026, 3:22 pm, in reply to "Cold Hardy Palms: The Complete Guide " Thank you AJ for your time and expense in publishing this guide. It is definitely the best source I've seen after decades of tropical gardening and especially produced in a format like the old college days of the laminated quick study guides and bar charts. This is the second time I've watched this but this time I had notes and questions but it wasn't needed. You covered every aspect perfectly. The Genetic Differences chart is excellent and the Sabal minor versus Sabal x Brazoriensis chart. At 56:58 the Summary and Insight Information chart is described perfectly and important. In closing, the Building a firm foundation chart and Microclimate information is key to success. This is a wonderful gift of learning, no matter where one is on the gardening scale because references, trials and data do change. I hope everyone that sees this will watch the entire video because it's connected for that purpose. I'm celebrating 30 years of "the tropical look" gardening in Tennessee this year and like others north of my location, I have been mocked and joked on my choices but AJ you have shown without a doubt that this hobby can be enjoyed by the majority of gardeners if your willing to put a little effort in it, Many of the long time members here will remember Rick Gouls of suburban Cleveland, Ohio growing Needle Palms in his workplace parking lot and creating dwarf Crape Myrtles to compliment them because he could, decades ago, Thank you AJ
