No shit! hahaha right ON that wall, wtf.

@@StinkyTeal 😂

LOL

The rootball on a palm tree is small. I plant them at all my rental property in South Florida

I guess the proximity to the wall helps the palm as it will provide shelter and the brick will act like a storage heater in the summer.

hello.. may i plz knw which category of Palm is this... I've it in my house & don't knw it's name.. kindly help... ☺☺☺

Hello, Samidha! The name of this palm is Chamaerops humilis, variously called European fan palm, or the Mediterranean dwarf palm.

​@@samidhashukla9799 it's a Trachycarpus Fortunei.

Hi Jann Lechelle, at least twice a week in the warmer months.

2 times per week

I bought some largish palm plants off eBay uk a few years back. I transferred them to larger pots about 15 litre pots a while back. I’m now going to have them transferred to the ground. They look healthy in more shaded area. They fade if left in strong sun light. I’m going to have them planted along a shaded wall.

I was thinking the same... could be a problem in the future

Its not is wall

Looks to be about a meter... should be fine, but it will not look as aesthetically pleasing if it survives more than 10 years in the future.

It won't grow much more wider

@@slifer0081 they actually meant their roots are not able to grow bigger because of the wall blocking their way

how is it doing now? i just did the same thing.

I’m about to plant one too but in my filthy whore soil 😔

At the peak of summer when the soil is as warm as possible. So end of June. Late spring is also good.

Palms roots are different than that of other trees in that they don't damage house foundations or underground pipes.

no... Unless you redig a very large hole and add a bag or two of sand to the surrounding soil. They need well drained soil.

Majesty Palms ✨Suck✨

I have had two palms in 15 litre pots for 10 years or so. In my experience they do not like full sun. They turn yellowish. They keep a nice dark green colour in a shaded area on a stand along a wall leaving room for the leaves to spread and not much water. I’m about to transfer them to the ground. Tropical rain forests are shady.

Yeah the roots need space

Hi SMS CUSTOMS! yes but not in full sun and avoid very cold nights, it depends on the species, what is it?

Why not in full sun. do they not do well in full sun?

Hi fe ga, SMS CUSTOM is asking for an indoor palm, so if a plant has been indoors for a while and not in direct sunlight then taking it outdoors into full sun can shock and scorch the leaves.

@@autotecni also thought they did until I planted some. They stay a nice dark green if left in a shaded area. The leaves fade if left in full sun. Mine are in pots at the moment. I’m about to transfer them to the ground along a shaded wall.

Trachycarpus has small rootballs and they do not damage walls or foundations.

Too close to the building. Needs some room when gets tall and wide. 🤪

@@cj7girl280 It will most likely start to grow away from the wall to make room for the fronds or the fronds on the backside will be compressed into the wall until the palm is taller than the wall. Either scenerio is not a problem. Trachies do not get huge crowns or trunks.

Hi, this is a Trachycarpus fortunei or Chusan Palm. www.palmcentre.co.uk/products/tfo/trachycarpus-fortunei-chusan-palm

Looks like a windmill palm

Windmill

Yes indeed it does haha

Juan DontWorryAboutIt yep that’s what I thought, he said there was no stones , yet you can hear them on the spade

Windmill

Much too close.

He has no idea how big that tree will grow...... but hey.....Rookies know everything right ?

I thought same

It's a windmill palm - Won't be too big. Still too close for comfort.

@@brianburroughs Its a Mexican Fan Palm and grows 60 feet tall

It’s common sense that if you plant it too close to a wall the leaves can’t spread if the walls in the way.

Perhaps there are some volunteer gardeners in your area who would lend a hand? It's a pity to let the trees die.

@@Lutoslava Thanks for your concern.. Actually, I no longer think poor drainage is what's killing some of my windmill palms. I recently remembered about 12 yrs ago, I planted one in a swampy, muddy area located near the entrance to a stream.. It's still growing and appears very healthy. It gets only a little dappled sun, so it's not growing very fast, but it's healthy as can be! Other palms, growing on well drained soil have just 'up and died' for no apparent reason. I'm baffled! It's kind of you to take interest in my palm mystery.. I have 7 Windmill palms that seem very happy and are rapidly growing. Go figure! Thanks again for your input!! You seem like a nice person!!

It's not a problem neither the wall or foundation of it will be damaged. One or two things will happen it either starts to bend slightly outwards to get away from the wall or it will just grow straight up with some fronds compressed on one side untill it clears the wall. Neither is a problem.

No, this gentleman has it wrong!

Lol
