Butia capitata
1991
This Butia was purchased balled and burlapped from a nursery in South Carolina. It was planted in early spring.
1992
The first winter for this Butia was made easy with a cover on cold nights.
1993
The 3rd year in the ground resulted in fast growth.
1994
At this size, winter protection becomes a problem.
1995
Thank goodness for a mild 94-95 winter.
