I would look for any air roots on the pups - I would think those air roots would dig into the dirt quickly for you.

Thanks for making me rethink them. I also prefer them under live oaks. The palms with the magnolia don't please me, although on second thought it reminds me of the Hartmann Prehistoric Garden in Austin, which pairs ancient plants like these. So maybe the homeowners are going for a prehistoric look.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-118703221138865382.post-12912057975758941662008-06-11T14:36:00.000-05:002008-06-11T14:36:00.000-05:00Mine's in a container next to the patio, Mary Beth...Mine's in a container next to the patio, Mary Beth - sure hope the slow growing part holds true! <BR/>We've only had our Mediterranean Fan Palm for a little over a year - no pups yet but your post clued me in to watch for them.<BR/><BR/>Annie at the Transplantable RoseAnnie in Austinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14662139490401110432noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-118703221138865382.post-23033342146657289682008-06-11T14:24:00.000-05:002008-06-11T14:24:00.000-05:00Ohhh I love those.
