Yes true professional? What he doesn’t mention is what are you going to do when palm tree is 100+ ft how do u reach it with a helicopter or parachute??? Can someone please explain?
He did explain…. You hire a tree trimmer who will ascend the tree with a rope and spiked shoes or a truck with a telescopic bucket. You should watch a video on cleaning your ears out…
You did it David! Thank you for demonstrating the proper way to prune our palms! I have been tenderly attending to my palms and they are beautiful! Thank you for getting me off to a great start! Lynn in California
You've done your homework on palms and on speaking and explaining clearly at a perfect tempo. Thanks for deep knowledge that I'm sure takes a lot of experience and research on the pages and in the field. Thanks excellent videos
Thumbs way up. You are the palm tree scientist. I learned more from you in 18 min than i did the whole month going to home depot. Thank you again for your knowledge. Keep it up.
Fantastic information! Thank you a bunch! I was trying to get more info on maintaining my palm tree and this is one of the best videos I’ve found! Thanks, David C!
Great job. I will definitely be coming to Earth works to look at palms and hope to meet you David. I lost 2 Canary island palms I had purchased at home depot a number of years ago from fusarium wilt. I never had anyone trim them as they were potted and the total height was at most 8-10 feet. The body of the palms were maybe 3 feet tall. So it had to be in the tree from the grower. I have now mentioned these concerns to a number of neighbors in hopes they sanitize their tools or more importantly tell the guys in trucks that drive around and offer discount palm trimming to sanitize theirs. I dont think many listen. But your advice is VERY, VERY important.
Watching this makes me homesick. I've lived in New York City for over 20 years but grew up in Gainesville and St. Augustine. All the beautiful palms! Even your accent- north central Florida twang a-la Tom Petty!
David, hey bud this is Kyle from back in the days of Reeds and Rocks. My roommate Brad and I worked there when you and Freddy worked for Josh. Just watched your video on fertilizing palms and now the trimming one. Looks like you are still killin the palm game! Hope all is well!
David thank you so much. You crunched up so much into this video. Please keep up the videos! I just bought a house and discovered some changes on the palm trees in my backyard 🌴 I will be emailing you hoping you can help. Thank you so much! - ConcertDude
Thank you so much for being so thorough!! So informative. I have a palm that didn’t grow new fronds this year! My husband noticed this growth on the trunk and we’re trying to figure out what it is. We have an arborist coming. Fingers crossed 😢
thank you for this, I wish you lived in San Diego. Just bought a house and the palm trees appear to be sick & dying, but the neighbors palms look great 🤷🏻♂️
Thanks for the video. Just bout a queen palm. Hopefully it can survive the winner. Where I live in California in the foothills where it can occasionally snow.
Great video, wish more people saw it. Here in Phoenix, Arizona we have an epidemic of over pruned palm trees. It’s amazing to see the amount of “professionals” who have no idea what they’re doing. They cut too much off which is harmful to the tree and it looks terrible. Palm trees are not supposed to be looking like a pencil.
Sorry Kyron, no, but you can bring photos into the garden center or email and ask for evaluative open for free from Matt at earthworksjax@gmail.com Happy to help!
I bet!! I feel privileged that this place is only 45 minutes from where we live. The places here we go to are basically clueless about trees. Even at Home Depot and Lowe’s they just don’t have the knowledge, patience or time to help like these videos do!!
Hi there. I plant palm trees in Brazil and, while watching your video, this question ocurred to me: how long does it take for the roots of a transplanted palm to rebuild until it has again the same range it had before the transplantation? I mean, when it is properly planted with a drained soil with proper nutrients. Thanks for the video. I learned a lot from it.
I would assume 18-24 months. For smaller faster growing palms like a Washingtonia I think more like 6-12 months. Why is because transplanted palms start to speed up their growth a lot around that time when planted in the ground.
just had someone come clean up my palm tree. he took off SO MANY fonds. There's literally like 5 fonds at the top (in good shape)... the majority of my fonds were dead... but there was still SOME greenish ones at the top that were also cut off. Did they take off too many fonds? It looks incredibly dorky. will they grow back? will new ones come in? how long til it looks like my tree has some substance again?
@@EarthWorksJax there is plenty of sun.. but the water is scarce and the dirt is pretty rough... doubt there are many nutrients in the ground. just bought palm food- will the tree be fine? They left on like 5 fonds. they were sticking straight up but now the ends are drooping. thanks
I enjoy your videos here in Vegas I have 10 Robillini Palms love them. You are correct my last home I grew 9 beautiful Mexican Palms, a landscaping company used spikes 3 months later 2 15 foot high healthy palms died.
I love palm trees definitely want to move somewhere where they grow them like Florida palms are beautiful trees. I have an indoor sago palm and lack of sun because it’s cold here I can’t put it outside but the fronds are really dying. Any advice to have the tree grow healthier again?
How else would u trim palms without spikes? What if they are inaccessible by bucket truck and a lift doesn’t reach? Spiking the palm does not hurt the tree
I notice that you have not had either coconut or oil palm. What is your recommendation, sanitation wise, in the commercial tapping for palm sap. Would using an electric borer like they do tapping maple trees do it? Would you sterilize every equipment so as not to infect the palm tree?

Be careful with the thorny varieties of palms as they can hurt you, especially from falling debris when trimming overhead.

Thanks heaps bro keep up the good work excellent info in learning about the greatest plants on da planet 🤙🤙🤙
Thank you. Very informative.
Great walk through! For the Queen palms, how do you recommend an owner cleans up the trunk and removes the leave bases after they dry?
Hey Michael we'd recommend using a saw a few inches from the trunk typically in Fall.
This dude know his stuff! thx!
thank you for this, I wish you lived in San Diego. Just bought a house and the palm trees appear to be sick & dying, but the neighbors palms look great 🤷🏻♂️
Great video. Very helpful. You should open a school / clinic. I’d attend fir sure!

And wow,... growing and selling king palms in the Duval? Did not know they will survive up there...have some in my yard in the 321.
Is transplanting palms at night better for palms than in the day in the desert heat?
Not necessary or as important as proper soil preparation and watering @Abandon Belief.
Great content!!! Do you guys travel locally to evaluate the health or need of a newly transplanted palm?
Sorry Kyron, no, but you can bring photos into the garden center or email and ask for evaluative open for free from Matt at earthworksjax@gmail.com Happy to help!
@@EarthWorksJax will do. Thanks again!!
This man knows his stuff!!! Are you folks getting any Beccariophoenix (alfredii's, fenestralis or madagariensis) palms?
Loved watching him. Is it possible to show how to maintain banana trees? There are many opinions, but I want what is best for my tree!
Damn it I just used my neighbors and didn’t know I had to disinfect it. Thanks for these tips
Great information.
Great video. I did not know the rock trimmed trees lol
Thank you for sharing.
Thanks for all the good information.
I have one question. I recently bought 3 pygmy date palms. How soon will the pygmy date set fruit ?
Great video. Wish you were in Houston.
I bet!! I feel privileged that this place is only 45 minutes from where we live. The places here we go to are basically clueless about trees. Even at Home Depot and Lowe’s they just don’t have the knowledge, patience or time to help like these videos do!!
What's your thoughts on removing the old sheaths? Some people want them removed!
thank u so much for the advice

Grazie ! un video molto utile anche per le mie palme , a Sanremo Italy .

Did they take off too many fonds? It looks incredibly dorky. will they grow back? will new ones come in? how long til it looks like my tree has some substance again?
Sounds like too many were removed. They will grow back, but it strains the plant that requires ample photosynthesis.
@@EarthWorksJax there is plenty of sun.. but the water is scarce and the dirt is pretty rough... doubt there are many nutrients in the ground. just bought palm food- will the tree be fine? They left on like 5 fonds. they were sticking straight up but now the ends are drooping. thanks
I enjoy your videos here in Vegas I have 10 Robillini Palms love them. You are correct my last home I grew 9 beautiful Mexican Palms, a landscaping company used spikes 3 months later 2 15 foot high healthy palms died.
Good job .
I love palm trees definitely want to move somewhere where they grow them like Florida palms are beautiful trees. I have an indoor sago palm and lack of sun because it’s cold here I can’t put it outside but the fronds are really dying. Any advice to have the tree grow healthier again?
Great video, thank you
How else would u trim palms without spikes? What if they are inaccessible by bucket truck and a lift doesn’t reach? Spiking the palm does not hurt the tree
Thank you! Very helpful!
info packed in every sentence -
Thanks for the video =)
Is it fine to prune a crown shafted palm once the frond start turning a little yellow?
Great info!
So you aren’t supposed to hurricane trim robellini palm trees? (Where you trim everything but the new growth)
I notice that you have not had either coconut or oil palm. What is your recommendation, sanitation wise, in the commercial tapping for palm sap. Would using an electric borer like they do tapping maple trees do it? Would you sterilize every equipment so as not to infect the palm tree?
I live in Magnolia Tx are you in Montgomery Tx? One of my date palms is not doing well. I did copper fungicide, watered need advice cant lose my baby
Sir I have a newly transplanted Sylvester from a farm going experiencing some shock. How should I treat it other than water?
That was awesome info.. thanks
Great job
