I have a baby Mexican Fan Palm (trunk is about 12 or 18in) and want to see if I can keep it from getting much taller (no more than 15 ft).
Since I’m no good at horticulture, willing potting keep it from getting much taller? Can I pot it and put the pot in the ground?
I’d love to have your ideas, I’d rather not get rid of this plant just because I misread the label!

My mexican fan palm is in a pot right know , with the palm itself being at about 3 1/2 feet tall. Currently the palm has been getting yellow on the tips of new fronds and the old fronds are turning a brown and yellow color in the middle. And the tips on one frond is all dry and crispy like. What does all of this mean? Oh and why could it be my palm isnt growing much in the past year? it has only opened up maybe 2 fronds and has not grown at all. It is outside in full sun. does this palm need humidity?

10pts! please answer!!

Okay I dont really know much about Palm tree’s but, I want to know how long does it take for a Mexican Fan Palm Tree to grow full height. I live out here in Texas by Houston. I have one i put in 1 1/2 years ago, and alltogether its about 6ft tall but the trunk or whatever is like 4ft tall. And is it okay to cut some of the Palm leafs off? Does it speed up the growth?

Living in So. Cal. my whole life I have seen a lot of palm trees and I know that it is much more beautiful to ’skin’ a palm tree such as the mexican and california fan palm rather than just cut off the fronds. I have done it myself but with not much luck. I used a machete and got most of the fibers off but it took the longest time, and I also hacked a little bit into the trunk while doing it. There is a question similiar to mine on yahoo questions and the only reply was from a guy that asked in a suprised manner “You do not have a skinning machine? They are so quick!” The only reason I bring this up is that I have seen the work of professionals and you can see a uniform fashion in how the fronds were skinned off the trunk. If the guy was not being facetious, and there is such a machine I would like to know a little more about it. If not then what are these Mexicans doing to quickly and perfectly skin these fan palms? Any advice would be great.
Thanks.

I want so sell it But , dont know how much to Ask for..http://www.flickr.com/photos/familiamonj…
