Well, that might be stretching it a bit, but I am heading back to my native northern Ohio (USDA zone 5b – practically the Arctic Tundra) for the weekend and am quite anxious to see the Windmill Palm my brother-in-law planted 3 years ago next to his swimming pool. As of last Fall it was doing quite well, and hadn’t been used for fuel by any of the small bands of Eskimo who inhabit the far north.
I have to add that my brother in law – who is a carpenter by trade – puts me to shame every year with the high quality pavilions he constructs around this palm. My back yard palm hut looks like something Jed Clampett would have built, and his is closer to resembling a creation by by Scotty off the USS Enterprise. Will take my camera and see if I can grab a shot or two.
