Comment on Sabal minor- It’s not the Saw Palmetto !

It's good to see that the Sabal Minor is gaining recognition. I have several and even purchased one from you a year or so ago. It's now about 38" tall and is currently about to bloom. The flower spike is nearly 4' tall.

Comment on Sylvester Date Palm (Phoenix sylvestris)

After admiring Phoenix sylvestris for a number of years, we finally installed one in our landscape in South Texas. I love the orangish trunk and that they tend to keep their boots. Of course, the size of the canopy is another huge plus.

Cher monsieur Luc

Nous habitons le nord de la France (62),
nous avions un olivier de 5 ans en pot sur une terrasse abritée et malheureusement il a tout de même gelé cet hiver.
Comment celà se faisse ?
La variété s'appelait Anglanda originaire des Alpes de Haute Provence

Good article, I too believe this is a good addition to the Florida landscape, even if it does not fruit. The current wave is drought tolerant trees and this fits perfectly. As Rebecca said, it would be nice to have the info to process the fruit into something edible, if I had it I would post it although it should be easy to find online. I have three varieties and only the Manzanilla has produced so far here in Immokalee, FL. Billy

As an olive lover I would like to know how to prepare the fruit, how to cure it or whatever you do before you can eat it. I have been wanting to order one for my daughter who too is an olive lover. Thanks Luc.
