Cool Spring is here and it's time for new landscaping
Unfortunately, I lost a LOT of shrubs, trees etc... In our severe frost (Relatively speaking for AZ ).

So after visiting the local nursery and ordering about 20 new plants, I took the BIG PLUNGE and got this 10' Date Palm. I have always wanted a big palm in my backyard. I'll send pics after it is planted on 4/20 .

So jealous... wish we could plant trees like that here and they survive...

Ken is wanting to plant a Japanese Maple once our place is finished... I guess that will do...

Nice tree...

But maybe you should buy two of them (and a nice hammock!)

Best,

Cool. That tree looks taller than 10' but it could just be the angle of the pic. What does a tree like that go for?
