Basics to growing Palm Seedlings Apr 13, 2005 04:57 PM
(Total replies: 6)
I actually ordered some queen palm seeds as well as travellers tree seeds and have them planted. What the instructions didn't tell me is how often I need to water the seeds. I have them in pots here in the house in a suny south facing window and water every two days as I am not sure how often to water them I erred in my zone reference in my last posting. I am Zone 6, not zone 5. I also have a windmill palm about 8" high that I am wanting to try outdoors as well as two needle palms that are on order and should be here by May. At a website called "gardenweb" there is some one in Chicago Illinois that has a Windmill Palm planted outside and has gone thru two Chicago winters and Chicago is zone 6, too, I think. My idea is to put a heat tape (like used on plumbing) in the ground in the area where the palms will be. It will be needle--windmill--needle about two feet from the front of my house (Faces South) in front of my dining room windows. Thanks!!

Dude!! I live in NW Ohio and would LOVE to help you thin out your crop!! If you want to get rid of some of them, I will be more than ahppy to take them off your hands. Obviously I would pay to have you send a bunch up here to me come spring, but just wanna help, and I need to get some banana plants going here to match my tropical theme here in my new house in Paulding. (Been a terrible winter here; I am originally from Jax. Fl. Hope I hear from you soon. Peace to you!! And continued good luck!! Just out of curiousity, have you tryed any cold hardy palms there in Missouri that have done well or so for you outside? If so, let me know which ones you tryed. Thanks!!

Hi. I am new to the site and love banans and palms. I live in NW Ohio (Zone 5) and am curious if there are any palms/bananas that will grow outside in this region and if so, where I can get seedlings. Also, I have been looking for cocos plumosa palm seeds and have looked every where for them and want to grow those inside my house. Any help will be much appreciated. Thanks!!!
