New York Palm Tree Help And Questions (NY)

[Manhattan Project]

Need to find some plants that can do well indoors without having any sunlight... Is that possible? If it's possible which ones? what do i need to keep them alive? and what about bugs and stuff like that...

[Manhattan Project]

So ideally, my girlfriend is on this summer in the city phase and instead of vacationing down south, where shes from, she wants to bring the palm trees to the city. She was about to purchase over 4k in just palms and plants, and luckily she left her window open and I saw the shopping cart. So before we make this investment we want know the pros and cons and also the maintenence required, because a dozen palm trees I would imagine would require watering each one which takes a minute but then to do all of them etc... Is there any easier way?

Any help is appreciated

We would love to service palm trees for her at a lower cost! That is a lot of money! www.ctpalm.com. Indoors is tough, especially if there is not much sun! They need to be misted a few times a week, and watered twice a week. Need to mist everyday in Winter if kept indoors due to the dry heat from home heating sources. How many trees was she attempting to get? contact@ctpalm.com if you want to chat more!

How can I make more of these plants, i am fascinated by them and would like to give them out to my friends.. I have pictures on my facebook you can go to it here.

Banana Palms are great do not pull the leaves they must be trimmed when they turn brown. they are easy and palms to keep around although they do have fragile leaves. They are very hard to kill unless they freeze. you must keep them indoors during winter or whenever the weather gets colder than 32 degrees.

Try and Place the Banana's in an area where they get the most sunlight water everyday even when its cold,especially when its cold water them. I have been growing Banana Palms ever since i could walk. My father was a grower of these. they are real hardy but people often make the mistake that they are dead when in fact taking simple measures such as these usually solve the problem.

Does anyone know of a good spot to pick up exotic plants and palms from in the city? Tropical Plants and Orchids on 28th is way to pricey and very limited selection, I am orchided out and looking for a place to actually select the plants for my apartment in SoHo.

Hi everyone.
I was reading up on this really cool tool I am finding a lot of helpful info.
The hardiest palm in the world is known as the needle palm (Rhapidophyllum Hystrix) and is able to handle temperatures below -0° F. wow I am moving to florida beginning of spring. I have always been infatuated with palms myself. Palms first appear in the fossil record around 80 million years ago the mangrove palms are in danger of dying out because of human activity as the continents move the palm tree's seeds, called coconuts, to their new home. The mangrove tree lives right in the water. Their seeds fall from the tree and grow. It holds a place in the worlds most threatened species due to illegal logging of mangrove forests for firewood. A species dating back at least 80 million years. Theres a lot to be discovered still about palms. Just thought I'd share that here.

I was gifted a Majestic palm this past winter.

I put it in my office theres a huge window that gets too much sunlight. I am using it as a shade barrier to block the direct light that creates reflections on my laptop. I wouldn't want it to get taller than the 6ft it stands now. Maybe there something that exists to put on it's soil to keep it from growing??

They have planters that hold extra water. I have the (Lechuza) planters for all of my palms I only need to water once a month. They have them in every color shape & size

I checked with the local palm tree nurseries in the area, but they ran out, so I am hoping to get some replies. Thanks so much.

Yes,my husband asking me to look for palmtrees.do you deliver them to Great Necks ?
