Friend of Fronds

I showed you the tall Cane Palms in our yard a few days ago. This Cane Palm is a self pruner. They turn Red then brown then fall to the ground..

To me they are beautiful even dead and on the ground. Except they do need to be hauled to the curb for trash pickup..

Fronds turn Red

Then they are dead

they fall to the ground

and no longer  need to be around

To the curb they must go

Oh NO Oh NO

 NOT my JOB.... 

THAT belongs to BOB...

Dypsis lutescens in our yard..

You may be familiar with the Cane Palm (dypsis lutescens) seen in homes and offices and malls as decorative potted palms.

Be Aware, if planted in the ground in sub tropic Florida it can and will grow to 40 feet and will spread as far as you let it....

While researching for the name of this palm I found this site called www.lovetoknow.com .

 Click here for Palm ID and HERE for my CAT LOVING FRIENDS

www.lovetoknow.com is really cool and has something for everyone.

Jakes favorite place in our yard is under and through and behind this large group of palms.. the possums and raccoons and a few rats have been know to love this plant to.  I love taking photos of the fronds. the below photos are to show you just how tall it is...we all three LOVE our Jungle...
