This is going to be a work in progress of what's been growing in the backyard over the last few years. As I gather the palms, on different sizes, they'll be classified on this page and offered for sale here and on Ebay. If you want to buy one or two, let me know in an email to Marty. I use Pay Pal to collect. Just remember to type in my email address when you get to Pay Pal (email address is [email protected]). Before you purchase , let me know in an email so that you pay the right amount. I also have a Palm Message Board that I've been trying to get people to use on a regular basis but people tend to be shy for some reason. Here it is below.
Florida creatures, critters, and bugs.
