My favourite tree, one thing that had me wondering was if I had one of these in my home one day would I actually ever feel safe sitting under it? if one of the fronds drops its pretty much game over, my dad has a few kentia palms in his backyard in Australia and even those spikes are enough to pierce skin especially dripping from 15m in the air, also the fact that birds cant sit/hangout in these trees is also a big negative for me living in Australia, however I did see one of your vids about squirrels burrowing inside one but we don't have any of those here lol
Hey Gary, nice work. It seems that you are one of the especiallist in the world for that palm trees. I live in brasil and i bought 9 big old canarian palm trres. Unfortunately two of them already died. The other ones i would like to trim them right. Could i send you some pics and would you give me some good advice?
Not only these palms, Even my Medjool Date Palms and some Sylvaster Palms in my Neighbourhood are big Needle Makers..on the leaf basis, especially on dead leaves they are so hard..
There's a cool song named "Mañana"! Mañana is good enough for me! "The window she is broken and the rain is comin' in If someone doesn't fix it I'll be soaking to my skin But if we wait a day or two the rain may go away And we don't need a window on such a sunny day" Haha!
As far as the kings, what are the sizes? Do you guys carry like 4-5ft trunk or are they smaller like the ones in the box stores? The ones I bought were 3 kings in a pot trunk about a a foot and half. That’s the biggest I could find.
I’ve seen these bad boys in tenerife- we get some even in the south uk - my small one in the north west England might survive lol
Some big ones down here in Deal Kent 👍🏻
I would love to learn from such 🌴🌴
Love these kind of vids! Beautiful trees 🌴💯

Superb job. Must take a lot of experience to take enough fronds off but not too many. First class👍

Gotta get that song. Thanks 🌴🌴🌴🌴
I wonder how much it costs to have a 10-foot canary date palm trimmed and trunk skinned.
I bought some king palms at Lowe’s planted them and fonds are turning brown. Any advice? I live in aAntioch ca , hot weather here.
Chain stores most often sell weak and non acclimatized material. Water well and cross your fingers for recovery.
@@ScaryHairyGary thank you, do you sell some of these king palms at the Richmond nursery? Or foxtail palms?
Yes, we have lots of kings. And no we don’t have Foxtails as they seem to not do so well here in nor cal

@@ScaryHairyGary also I was told they tend to grow about 20ft in my area. Any truth in that?
Nice job! They look beautiful. Everytime you throw a handful of dates in your mouth I'm afraid you are going to joke on one. It's all I think about 😄
How old are they?
Pretty old. 35-60
