The Greening of the flying room

...Just make sure there are no palmetto bugs in them, a favorite place for the little nasties.

Don't tell her!!!

I would suggest transplanting them way outside in the grass not indoors

ok you comin' down with a 12 ft long roller brush to paint over the top?
One good thing is there are pine trees on that side which sort of shelter the view....

the idea is growing on me....

sure, ought to be a good laugh when I fall off the ladder

(wait a minute - I have a 15' extend a pole here, so no problem!!)

I like the idea - if you think it will be too bright, maybe decrease the number of panels?

I love being able to see outside where ever I am though

Queens get HUGE!! It's going to look like Jumanji in there..hehe...Just make sure there are no palmetto bugs in them, a favorite place for the little nasties. Very nice Saroj, I like the clear panel ideas, but I bet enough light gets in as it is for the palms.

palmetto bugs
Enough light does get in, but now I'm getting visions of actual sunlight flooding that section

no no i LOVE bright. I was just worrying about the guys spotting circling hawks and freaking...
good to know there is actually such a thing as extendapole

you have me thinking (again)

all palms are safe? we have these native windmill looking palms that grow all over my yard - I could just dig up a couple of the small ones and bring them in

 

[rockoko]

what the heck is a windmill looking palm?

 

[GG.]

there are 'windmill palms'

I was just looking for it and I think what I have are either Needle Palms or sabal minor (dwarf palmetto) - leaning toward the palmettos

either way, I have a few small enough to bring in

of the ones here? or the generic kind?

 

[CarmieJo]

Those are really nice!

 

[birdstuff]

Beautiful Saroj! I love the Chinese palm. I haven't seen that one before. Your room looks GREAT!

 

[GG.]

Titanis, I saw bugs in the front of the house-a dragonfly Spring is coming

I am super excited about this!!

when you bring one in

 

[GG.]

ahhhh - so I did not have to run out and take pics before dark then

k, will take a pic when moved indoors, I have a few nice empty pots just dieing to be filled

hey, if you're willing to take pics outside-go for it, I won't stop you

 

[saroj12]

waits patiently for promised palm pictures....

 

[GG.]

silly girls - I had taken them already


these are in the side yard, by the kitchen, I want to think there are a couple more out back and I know there are a couple in the front,

and look what else I found out there!

 

[rockoko]

a KITTY Palm!!! pretty kitty!

I have some of those palms sticking their noses out of the dirt in front too

 

[GG.]

friendly too - she rolled over for me to scratch her tummy like the dogs!!

I think she was looking for Mr Whiskers - he adopted us a few months ago and lives in the chicken/goat/duck yard

(I swear there is a sign on my house that says - 'Free Eats Here!')

I think I could dig up a couple, they grow pretty fast and it would be a nice start anyway

Home Depot is on my list for next week too

Those I have always called palmetto bushes.
