Thank you! 🙏 Collected the necessities at the garden center and going for it tomorrow.
Thank you so much for this video. It is very informative and easy to watch. Somebody threw out a perfectly good palm and I took it~ I feel prepared to care for my new baby.
Thank you very much for replying so promptly. I am about to repot for the first time ( a cutting I took some years ago from a friend’s huge palm) so will follow your advice!
This video was a great help to me, it gave me just the information I needed to transplant my palms to a larger containers, fingers crossed they continue to flourish. Thanks.
We have one of these palms but it's been in a corner for years neglected. Dragged if out yesterday and it's thrived! Looks like it's growing 5/6 new well established plants around it's base
The video was clear, and very precise..
It was just what I needed.
I was blessed yesterday with 3 huge palms and I was not sure of the soil mix to repot.
Thank you..
Great info, thanks so much!! Can't wait to get potting now
Great video. Thank You!
The white chipping stones just make it so nice.
+Krisztián Mohácsi Glad you enjoyed it! Yes the white stones do look pretty nice on there, but they also help to retain moisture and suppress weeds! Thanks for watching!
Thanks for your advice, I have a small garden with not much room and mostly paving
Lots of useful information. Can you do a video for Jubaea Chilensis?
great information as I'm just about to repot on ours. Will go to the local garden centre first for the right soils. Thank you
Dear sir nice to watch your video on palm trees I'm going to repot my own palm trees up soon they have a girth of about 10 to 12 inches and being 2.5 to 3 m high I'm going to put them in 80 L pots so with your information and others I will give it a try and see how I get on, nice to see the garden of another palm lover awaiting your future videos thank you
Great video jack,
Alot of useful information.
Keep up the good work! 👍
Wonderful video enjoy watching, you've got to get the silver palm and cardboard palm if you don't have one already they're beautiful
Great job Jack, thanks for sharing. I'm about to start growing my first coco palm :)
+Nuray O'Connell Exciting! Please let me know how it goes!! :)
Whats the 5 year update?
Thanks for that. I was going transfer my palm now. So I will leave it till the spring now.
Very informative as have a palm to pot up soon thank you
Thanks for this. Would you recommend the same process for potting on a Canary Island Palm? I bought one recently that looks too big for its pot, although it's too small to keep outside all year. I was thinking I could put it into a bigger pot and bring it into the house over the winter until it gets a bit bigger. Would it cope okay with the change in temperature from outdoors (in Scotland) to indoors?
Great video thank you Jack.
What a fantastic video 👍 thank you so much 🏝
Hi Jack,
I'm in California, USA. When planting in the ground, can I add sand to the soil to allow for better drainage? Do you have any suggestions. I'm planting Queen Palm and King Palms. Thank You.
Good information thanks I bought last now I'm going transfer in pot can you please write down which fertiliser for this plant and how much need and when thanks
Very well done video, beautiful plants
Hi Jack. any advice on repotting a Washingtonia robusta? How well-drained does the soil need to be and what kind of ratio would you use etc?
Really nicely done video was very clear have subscribed 👌 I have a palm tree but only small however all the leaves have gone a light brown colour I have re potted and ordered some palm booster any other tips? Some say put in direct sunlight some say don’t really confused
I love the use of old plastic ours for modern day crocks ( old broken terracotta pots) great reuse of a problematic none recyclables.
Plus, love the gardening in bare feet, cute. 😅
Thank you for the video Jack very informative :) I've just bought two Trachycarpus Fortunei for outside and two Phoenix Canariensis for indoors so looking forward to repotting them and getting them in place :)
Palms are just THE BEST!!!
Yes very much so
Which type of palm tree have fruits or all types
Hi. Thanks I enjoyed your video on planting on palms. I am a novice gardener and have been given 2 large off shoots from a Cornish palm. Should I pot them in the same way? They are about 4-5 ft tall each. Thanks Gill
Hi Jack. Another interesting video; thanks for making and sharing. I too love palms and am lucky that here in south-west Cornwall we have a wide range of them growing all over the place. I also like the Australian tree ferns and I have one in my garden. It's only about 6' high but the fronds are at least 5' long too so it looks lovely.
I look forward to your next video :)
Very informative 👌🏾 keep up the good work
Great video. Can you please share more information on Palms? Eg types that are good in UK thanks
Can you suggest an alternative to the John Innes' compost? Here in Germany they're not really big on growing palms.
Great video thanks, are these suitable for a shade place outside?
Thank you for your post. I have a question about my trachycarpus. I have them now for 2 months and they were doing great, but for 2 weeks one of my palms, the leaves are so dry and I have no idea what happened. Do you have any idea what I can do about it?
Thanks for the video, everything is clear...only question I have is...do you think these kind of palms can also witstand a lot of wind? I am planting them on my terrace.
Looks great. Can I also add bonemeal to the mixture and if so how much?
I really enjoyed that thanks X I'm just about to buy my first Phoenix palms wish me luck
+Joe Harvey Thanks for watching! Phoenix palms are beautiful- and easy going too! A great first choice!
Dear jack nice to see your video, I am hoping to repot some 18 months old palms that I got from the mother
tree what is the best time of year to report these palms.
Apart from using compost sometimes I do not use any Industriali made chemicals on the garden, I make worm cast and usually add a bit of grit or some stones I also make my own potash by burning a lot of tweaks which have the cambium layer on them which apparently makes good potash what do you think about what I want to do your experience would be well appreciated Sam.
Nice guide video, quick ask! i need to repot palm its in a 7ltr pot. What size pot be the best to grow in?
Your Exotics are Amazing 🌴
Hi Jack , Nice Video , thank you ....Whats the make of palm fertilizer please?
Hi Jack, really great video. Clear instructions. please can you recommend where I can buy/swap palm seeds from for the Trachycarpus Fortunii ?
UK palm societies on Facebook.
Good easy instructions to follow.
Jack, in your example how much bigger would the palm grow in that size pot? I want a statement palm on my new patio which is a real sun trap. I’m hoping to have a 6ft + size palm. Also, how often would I have to re pot it if at all?
Hi we brought a palm and in haste planted prior to potting. It's been in the ground 6 weeks. Should we take it out and pot it or leave be. Just put it in garden and that's it. Can any one advise please . Than You.
Cliff
Excellent well presented video
Great 👍 video thank you for sharing
Beautiful.
Can you give the NPK composition and information..?
Thank you greetings
Hi I have a plant it's about the same size as yours could I keep in a pot permanently because I have a small garden??? Would that stop it to grow in to a 20m tree which I don't want thanks.
My palm is desperate to be repotted but its mid November, is this OK to do and also what is the winter care for trachycarpus fortune? Thank you!
Trachycarpus is a favorite and I have a bunch
When would you relocate a palm in the garden ? I’m in the NE of England. Thanks
I have a outdoor palm in front of the house what does it mean when the stem gets a light yellow?
Good video . I need a bit of advice if you can help .
Two months ago I planted a healthy four foot canary phoenix palm . Being an amateur , when watering some shrubs and bedding plants I also gave the palm plenty of water . Now when I water I water heavily .
To my dismay the palm has stared to seriously wilt on all outer branches . Can this be saved , potted up and should I remove withered outer branches .
Any help would be really appreciated as the wife is going up the wall . Thanks in anticipation .
Good job ! 🌴
I live in michigan just got a baby palm from Florida I'm gonna keep the palm in the house. But I should let the plant drain even if its inside ?
It's actually a trachycarpus wagnarianus and there is actually a lot of debate over whether or not it is a type of fortunei or not, you can tell by the way that the leaves are very compact and sturdy unlike normal fortunei.
Hi Philip!
Does a T. Wagnerianus need drainage when planted in a backyard directly into the ground? I planted it in the backyard and then I start reading about it. LOL New leaves grow, but they are not dark green, and the old leaves are yellow-green. It' about 20 inches big palm with leaves. Some advice??
V8AmericanMuscleCar most palms like to be well drained. As long as it isn’t in a low spot and water isn’t pooling around the trunk it should be fine. If drainage is an issue for you and it’s roots are always wet, you may want to dig up the palm and raise up the area the palm is in (3 foot radius) and replant with a good draining mix.
@@victoriavisscher8239 thanks. The surface dries quickly and what's down around the roots can't be sure. Water doesn't remains on the surface and when I water it, the water is not retained. So I don't know, maybe leave it as it is... 😬
Thanks dear.
Good to see there are some growable palms for you poms.......from Australia.
I have many!! And they all look fab, lasting outside all year round!
Since you said windmill palm hardy 10 below zero my die from that too cold they can survive cold winter with protection without it short term live cold winter and only work warmer winter and dry cold with o degrees and 10 below zero in new Mexico and they grow many palms in Albuquerque new Mexico because is much warmer than my ave in Colorado springs and grand junction co have windmill palms leave always truly in dry cold o degrees and grow back. My true cold hardy palms for 10 below zero is sabal minor and Louisiana is needle palm and sabal mccurtain. Washingtonia filifera and filibusta can survive 10 below zero with dry cold and leaves froze and grow back fast. I will try my washingtonia palms in my yard next year and hopefully big enough for winter protection til they get trunk and see what happens next after too big to handle and grow fast and out grow winter protection. Windmill palm is slower Easter to keep them alive with winter protection and keep them dry. Humidity cold and ice can kill windmill palm now always survive humidity cold. I live in dry air climate. More chance to have my palms to live in winter. Because when they tell you windmill palm live 10 below people thought it can live but now always. Live and learn. And ground from kill palms roots they can die keep ground warm they live from use mulch and cover in winter. And near my house wall ground stay warm yearound.
just got 4 out 10 Trachycarpus fortunei palm seeds to germinate, and they are about 4 inches high , I was wondering how to ,or if I should transplant them ?
I have just pulled one of these (trachycarpus fortunei )from beneath my hedge. To my knowledge it ha been horizontal since we purchased the house 5 years ago. It is around 8 feet long with several leaf fans. The plant has been laying sideways along the ground beneath the hedge. We decided to pull it out to see if we could erect it in the garden. When it was finally dragged out we found that it has obviously been cut down as at the base is basically a trunk about 9 inches in diameter, no roots, just a sawn through trunk. The plant appears healthy with about a dozen fan like leaves. I assume it's been getting its nutrients from the main trunk being in contact with the ground as it has no apparent roots? Should we just dig a hole and put it in, or should we shorten the trunk a little first?
hey there mate. whats the lowest temperature that the phoenix canariensis handles at ur place? also whered u get them?
Thank you 👍👍
How do i keep mine trimmed in my back garden?????? Canary island date palm tree? Please do a video
I have one of these palms and have had for many years. I would like to move house and take it with me. Im in Essex Uk and hope to be able to do this. Will it survive if I put it in extra large pot this year. What month should I do this? As I don't want to lose it its about 8-10 foot high
enjoyed watching video. thanks
Great Advice.👍
How much water do you put on, how often please.
Great job, I learned a lot and you keep to small palms and pots, most go for giant trees and back hoes. Just one suggestion speed of growth so you have a clue as to what to expect.
Around a foot a year.
What are the names of the compost you are mentioning?
great vid
Is it possible to separate and plant any babies that start growing off the trunk?
Can I use sea weed food for it as this has done wonders for all my other plants?
im glad im not the only one who doesnt wear gloves when working. I like to feel everything lol clean up later!
awesome-thank you
Glad you enjoyed, thanks for watching. -Jack
Hi Jack. My palm have fungus. What you recommend please? Thank you
Hi im new to the planting thing and i have a palm. i had it for about two weeks and its dying. i have no idea what to do for it at this time. i watered it and it is in a well draining pot. the leaves have turned yellow and brown and they have shriveled up please help me?
Thank you; very helpful. I’m having a hard time understanding the soil additive you mentioned...to a yank it sounds like “dry-in #3” or “giant #3” what is that? Looks like a sand mixture. Also, how do you tell if the soil needs water with the gravel on top without disturbing the gravel?
He used a brand called John Inn No 3 which I think you only get it in UK
John Inn No 3
It’s John Innes No 3 which is just a brand make here in uk of a light nutrient rich sandy soil type, used for potting. But if you’re not in Uk you should substitute it with a mix of any garden gritty sand and any general potting compost (50//50) and add some perlite if you have it for extra drainage but not essential. Basically you want a nutrient rich gritty soil for your palm.
I'm guessing this would work for a Pheonix Robbelini (Pygmy Date Palm) right? I don't know how to spell lol.
What kind of palm is the first one you planted?
Awesome
Can you make video about Cycas Revoluta
Just received my coconut palm in the post. When I am able to plant it outside in my garden? I am in Aberdeen, Scotland.
Coconut palms, while lovely, are not suitable for planting outside in the UK - certainly not in Scotland as it’s far far too cold and the plant will be killed by frost! Sorry - best keep it inside 😊
What about if you repotting an indoor palm?
Would Comfrey liquid feed be ok?
How to care for if I have this palm in door ? Thanks in advance ☺
When to water it is necessary?
Can I control the size of my washingtonia robusta by the size of the container ideally I would like to keep it about 9 foot
Can you tell me what the palm fertiliser is?
Can you give me the names of other palms that do well in pots?
Hey, please can you let me know what compost you used ? About to replant a tree . Many thanks
John Innes No 3. Most people who grow palms use this. (In the UK at least)
Is palm recommended for indoor?
Palms are my favs after cycads
thanks for good video
What do you do about the white stones when you decide to plant the palm in your yard?
Just take them out and put them in a bucket of water and soap and you can reuse them
Do palm tree in pots have fruits
Is it safe for the rocks mixed in the soil?
Hi, Jack, you said you are mixing the multi-purpose compost with something else, more fertile. What is the name of this second type of compost? I live in the UK. Many thanks.
John Innes number 3.
Help! I’m watching from the United States and don’t know what the product is that sounds like “John ins”???? It’s some sort of soil additive or compost. If anyone can help, please let me know! Thanks.
I just bought one of these and the garden centre advised John Innes No 2 to repot it. Should it be mixed with anything else?
If that mix drains well, that’s all you need. Optionally You could add perlite or pumice to make it drain faster.
