Talk:Hyophorbe verschaffeltii

• Hyophorbe verschaffeltii has been observed to thrive in coastal San Diego, California. On the Point Loma Peninsula, mature specimens survived the infamous freeze of January 2007 with only a few yellowing leaves to show for the stress. These palms continue to grow through the Southern California winter, pushing a spear and opening a frond even in February, and will green up as temperatures improve.
• Kim, I hope you don't mind. I went ahead and copied your above observations to the main H. ver. article under "Culture." It's nice to have some text to add to these Palm Pages. Dypsisdean 12:55, 31 May 2007 (PDT)
