Not large,but the clean trunk without a single boot shows it must be an older palm.

Near the Hayward Golf Course. I cant remember the "Something Estates" name.
This one- like all the others were planted a few years ago 80% of the size they are now. This one Andy must have been in a tree box for a very long time before being sold.
The Date palm business must be a pretty good one..never any waste. If a tree isn't a good producer of sweet dates? They dig it up and sell it for thousands of dollars. Nothing is wasted.

Yes, the Date palm business is a very good one. They're being planted by the waterfront in San Diego. I can think of many other exotic palms to plants there; however, they're planted because of their extreme drought tolerance. And you know of the extreme drought we've been in for years.

See who else is growing Phoenix dactylifera (Date).
See who else has plants in genus Phoenix.
