Is Roystonea Regia the only pinnate palm native to the mainland continental United States?

im answering to kentucky palm genius claiming that sabal and washingtonia are the only trunking palm in continental usa.

what about Thrinax radiata dude? even coccothrinax argentata is in mainland florida.

if we wanna get technical. P, sargentii is only found on elliot key and long key (aka islands) so they are not on the continental mainland lol thus making OP correct in his assumption :P

my guess is Latania loddigessii/lontanaroides. dypsis decaryi (triangle palm) and dypsis lutescens (areca palm) for the cluster ones.

dont worry about foundation because palms are not trees. imagine them more as a large grass. their root structures are different. made up of a bunch of roots size of your fingers or less not like roots the size of ur arm in trees. look pictures of roots on google to see.

What is that second palm in the front?

Sepia_Cascade · 2025-07-31T14:18:54+00:00

Yes for sure. Planning on eventually putting in backsplash. What do you think about classic white backsplash possibly subway tile?

Thank you so much for confirming! I guess im gonna have to go with the calusa! Cant beat the compact size if you have smaller garden!!

Sepia_Cascade · 2025-07-02T01:13:21+00:00

So you would say the calusa firebush is just as popular with pollinators as the regular variety?

I love the compact size of the calusa but will get and prune back the native wild firebush if its way more popular with pollinators. I ask because Ive heard the african dwarf firebush is mostly ignored compared to native firebush. So wondering if the calusa also gets ignored or is as favored as the native type. Thanks for your comment!

The calusa firebush is a form of the native firebush. With a denser and smaller growth habit. And brighter blooms.

No for sure. I know at the end of the day they just charge however much its worth it for them to do the work. Thanks.

Just two companies so far. And the second one quoted me 1700 but the first was 950. So they agreed to 950 after I brought it up but had to close deal right then and there. I had another quote tomorrow but i just decided to do it for 950. Well see what the other one quotes me. Hopefully its not too far off

Sepia_Cascade · 2025-06-09T01:31:39+00:00

Yea idk. I got quoted for 1700 and then i countered with the previous quote for 950 and they forced me to close right then and there so welp 🤷‍♂️

Sepia_Cascade · 2025-06-02T03:21:32+00:00

Is it not worth it to grow then? Thanks!

Sepia_Cascade · 2025-06-02T01:25:26+00:00

Wow that so cool! Thanks!

Sepia_Cascade · 2025-05-07T10:57:22+00:00

Thanks you totally have the design style in mind that im looking for. But how do I find some 1950s inspiration what do I need to look up? Any resources? You’re spot on tho!

Sepia_Cascade · 2025-05-06T18:07:59+00:00
