Palm Trees and Brittany Spaniels in deep snow
This is my garden in February 2010 with my 2 Brittany Spaniels Winston (large one named after the PM) and Teddy (smaller one named after the POTUS) romping in the snow amongst the cold hardy palms and Eucalyptus.

Here is the same garden in September 2010 and a tour narrated by my friend.

Lots of green in the garden in the warmer months looks like where you live. Looks like a serious garden too where the plants all have a name and added to a landscape with special thought involved. I took a few snaps of my yard. I noticed the color difference.....at the moment. Just took photos of the stuff I knew the common name for.

Niner:
Very nice yard that is just begging to have a few hardy palms planted in it. Man, I wish I could get those bags of leaves to use in my planting beds! Too bad you live so far away as I would pick them up.

Somebody driving by the house picked them up before the trash pickup guy could get to them. Wish they had come along earlier to help me bag them up. But...that would never happen.

Niner: Besides the sago, have you thought about planting any other palms? They would be a cinch in your area.

Re: Palm Trees and Brittany Spaniels in deep snow
My early experience with palms includes particularly the Nipa Palm. They are found in muddy places in lands far away. Here is a photo of me helping a guy by relieving him of some weight in hopes he could extract himself from the mud in a grove of Nipa palm. Frankly, I lost all interest in them as a species upon first contact. And as a resultI have no particular interest in adding to my collection of one even though it doesn't have such a need for mud. I think Niner Delta would back me up on this. But to each his own. I admire your interest and knowledge in them.

Too bad as you could have some awesome palms that would look great with the other plants in your yard.
