They are truly beautiful Trachycarpus Fortunei specimens.
Thanks for watching. Cheers
Those 🦖 ferns always look great
Here in Ireland it's been such a terrible summer. Constant rain and very few warm days. The jet stream has been weird. Has it been nice in Canada? I feel like a hotter than usual Canadian summer could explain the northern blocking over here.
That was a parking lot??😲
I'll keep my eyes open for it!😳👁👁
Just visited this site for 4 days. It's a great place to go. The camp host is very friendly & helpful. Note check directions first as they can be confusing
The camp ground was beautiful and I enjoyed tenting there
Is that your doing or just a natural occurence from global warming?😂
I have been growing palms for decades. As for Global warming I think that is complete nonsense. As a weather observer for nearly 4 decades recording daily data year round and logging it. I have not seen a single change in anything, So after nearly 4 decades I took all of those weather log books and tossed them in the dumpster. I still have two weather stations in use. There are so many palm trees along the BC coast since the 1940's. It is a good climate for certain species
@@BananaJSSI ah interesting take thanks! I am loving it too!..The palm trees you planted there are absolutely beautiful and enrich the forrest. We have a shared passion for the beauty of these trees! Especially the Fortunei is so incredible to me how it is so hardy beyond belief. People in the NL are still surprised when I tell them I have palm trees growing and actively propagating in my garden😂
@@BananaJSSI and yeah climate change is primarily BS. In the NL they have been complaining about extremely dry summers and that extreme droughts will be a structural issue. Well this year we had the wettest year ever in recorded history 😂 I think this was probably a major contributor to the succes of all seedlings germinating this year😂
The NL gets hella rainy too
Here it is pretty rare in summer to see rain like this
@@julianschmahl8267 Its funny because I was there and in Germany and all the grass was very green whilst in London it's all parched.
@@NikauPalmCal yeah the NL is colloquially called "kikkerlandje" in Dutch which basically means Small Frogland due to the amount of rain. This year has been exceptional however with the amount of rain hence the beautiful greenery this year!!
@@julianschmahl8267 July was very wet compared to what it should be but June and August have been pretty dry. September in the first half looks dry in London.
We only get occasional summer rain like this when thunderstorms come up from the Mediterranean
This was great because it doesn't often happen in summer
@@BananaJSSI We got 19mm of rain from a thunderstorm, though now it's back to dry weather as far as I can see. Forecast is in the 80s and high 70s so the ground will be drying up again very quickly.
I gotta start planting seeds in Dutch forrests at random😂
Do it because they will easily grow in the Netherlands. I had Palm seeds sent to me from Zeeland many years ago
@@BananaJSSI awesome! Will do haha. My female tree has so many fresh seeds on her right now .. they are still very green however
@@julianschmahl8267 I harvest here in December onward through January / Feb.
I have a gigantic one in my garden too in the Netherlands. About 20 years old now next to a female. Every year sbe gives me seeds and small palms germinate around them.
Love it, awesome. There are some nice palms in the Netherlands
How do they grow there naturally lol? Makes me wanna go around forrests in the Netherlands and plant Trachycarpus Fortunei seeds everywhere😂😂
They do self seed around the palms, but in this forest I spread thousands of seeds every year
I was reading about this somewhere else and that led to your 12yr old vid! I am told that given the chance a crow will usually win when fighting a seagull. A seagull might be heavier/stronger but has a curved peak and duck feet whilst the crow is more agile/faster,. has claws and a strong pointed peak.
That is very interesting. I appreciate you tuning in to one of my older vids. Cheers
Thanks. Great vid. In Australia we call them 'gumnuts'.
Do you have any yucca aloifolia in your yard? Really wish it was more available in PNW. Gloriosa is beautiful too. I've been seeing a lot more large growing variegated gloriosa in Seattle. Happy to see people planting them more.
No not yet, not easy to find in Canada
Amazing plant joe👌🏽im searching for those are they hardy to zone 8a?
This far north they would get killed in a zone 8a winter. However a zone 8a in the south is different. I had these ones given to me several years ago from a fellow Palm Society member
@@BananaJSSI i want to experiment with them they are awesome
@@JulenOtero-Arosa Good plan. Hope you can find some to try out
What variety of gloriosa? Very cool. Not sure if that’s the same gloriosa that is native to the southeast US.
Superba, tough plants
such a cool micro climate!
Thanks. Cheers
Very nice people first time visiting our island
Awesome
Thanks
Beautiful, great music too
Thanks
All conifers spray something around and nothing wants to grow next to them.
Some years ago I read a very interesting article on how conifer forest evolve. The interesting thing was how conifers push deciduous growths out thus starving out land grazing and fruit/nut tree dwellers. Explains why the early pioneers downed the conifer trees and torched the soil.
That is very interesting indeed. Good info. Thanks

South Western Canada, just off the state of Washington... Thought to be a hub for big foot
I live on the island and I have seen strange things in the forest
Do you know where to get it on the island
No, I grew all of my Eucs from seed decades ago
Rhapis excelsa
Trachycarpus fortunei
They survive to how cold? And can they take over 40 Celsius/100 f heat too?
-20 F and I know our's have endured 109 F in late June 2021
@@BananaJSSI ooo great to know thank youuuu!!!
@@torquess454 There are many nice varieties of these hardy Hibiscus. Double flowering ones as well we also grow

@@BananaJSSI Our eyes!
@@These2EyesDontLie Yes indeed lol
Are the Christmas lights for decoration or are they for winterizing?
LED lights give off no heat. Never protect these palms in our climate. My wife has LED lights on year round because it looks nice for our accommodation guests
Yorkies are so tough
Are they still operating there?
No, I shot this video in March 2018
@@BananaJSSI ah. i thought they might have been still around. Never know with who tf kind of military JT is bringing in tbh
@@sortega8163 They are long gone and where they stay here is dead quiet. I live 2 minutes from Salt Spring Mineral Bath Resort where they stay. I drove past there late yesterday and no a soul around
@@BananaJSSI ah gotcha. Thanks for the update 😀
@@sortega8163 Cheers
So beautiful
Thanks
Are they Himalayan blackberries those invasive buggers? or are those guys native
These are Himalayan Blackberries that taste much better than those native ones. Love the fact that these grow along the road sides and people can pick for free. They taste so good, native ones don't taste that good
Hopefully lots of them will grow on salt spring island in the ground.
Yes indeed they do in private gardens
All looking good, I have one trachy that I got in early 2023 at a nursery in St. George utah for only like 35 bucks and it’s a really nice size palm probably around 6 years old or more.
Excellent! The St.George, Utah Chamaerops I grew from seed have proven very cold tolerant and they are still small
I love those blackberries! They make this 1 of the best times to be down your way!😍👁👁
Yes, these taste so good and they are everywhere
Chunky lots of 🪵
So beautiful

Would you mind looking at my recent tree fern video please? I'm after advice, because the fronds are coming out deformed. There's plenty of them and the first flush seemed fine but now they are nice and thick when emerging but then are stumpy deformed fronds. Have yours ever put out deformed fronds? Thank you
That is so beautiful! I have 2 babies will be putting in next year
Right on. Good for you, they really are cool plants. Expect about 1" inch of trunk growth per year if they are looked after properly
Come to think of it, temperatures reach as low as -10ºC high up on the mountains in Santa Catarina state. What's interesting for me is that's there's much less sunshine during winter time in BC!
Very interesting. Thank you
That's so cool! Thank you for documenting it.
Cheers
Looking good! Hello from Ladysmith!
Aloha
Haha! I've done lots of that myself. Even when I'm just out walking
Smart. We made approx $5 lol
That’s a gorgeous garden
Thanks. Been more than 3 decades in the making, We are still adding to it. Cheers
Lets hope the Jubea survives. Could you do an Update on your brahea armata? by the way have you ever tried other Braheas ?
Brahea is dead. I did a video on it many months ago. Another short term palms for our climate
Meanwhile here it's morbidly dry.
It has been that way here as well until we got dumped on late yesterday. It came down in buckets. It was crazy, but good for the garden., No watering for a couple of days
Stunning exotica ❤
Thank you
