Christmas tree 2004
Home from the Popa Noel lot on 360 with a beautiful 8-foot Fraser fur. We will put it up this weekend and begin decorating the house.
First Sego Palm Fruit
Our sego palm (cycus revoluta) planted by the front walkway ten years ago has finally produced a huge crop of fruit, a mass fifteen inches across. The 'flowers' are fat succulent orange pods about the size of a quarter with a fine furry surface. We don't know if they are edible, but the wasps seem to like them. KVUE used this on the weather report December 22nd. Anyone want a seed to grow next spring?
