I find that alot of people dont even know what a silver queen is. I bought mine in livingston tx
: Actually, there were 2 Home Depost stores
: I purchased the Silver Queens from --
: one at 1131 Lakeline Blvd Austin, TX
: 78717 (512) 331-4436 and the other at
: 3600 FM 620 South, Bee Cave, TX 78738
: (512) 263-0785
: At the end of the season they had 15
: GAL Silver Queens (which were about
: 6" - 8" diameter at base and
: 10' - 12' (including fronds) in height
: for $198.00 They last time I was in
: both these store, they still had a few.
:
: Leander is very close to me. You will
: enjoy living there.

: I live outside of Austin. I and
: several
: of my relatives have silver queen palm
: trees we purchased from the Home Depot
: at Lakeway (a small community near
: Austin). We had a major ice storm here
: in January. All of our Silver Queens
: lived through about 72 hours below
: freezing (sometimes considerably below)
: We have had some temperatures in
: outlying areas in the low 20's to
: teens. My Silver Queens are fine.

: Does anyone know of anyone who sells
: "RELIABLE" Silver Queen or
: Butia Bonetti (Var Odorata) seeds. If
: so, how reliable are their sources?
:
: I live in Homestead, FL, where there
: are many nurseries gowing the Silver
: Queen.
: Unfortunately, I have personally spoken
: with more then 10 separate nusery
: owners
: about the Silver Queen regarding their
: source for seeds. All were not sure
: and
: got their seeds from other local
: nurserymen. Since both palms look very
: similar
: and since there is so much diversity in
: the palm, I get the feeling that I am
: being hoodwinked.
:
: I will be relocating to Austin, TX and
: want to continue my extensive palm
: garden
: and am having a difficult time
: authenticating sources of Silver Queens
: and Butia
: Bonetti.
:
: Ortanique sells the Siver Queen. Do
: you know the owner and how reliable
: (authentic sources of seeds)is this
: company?
:
: Rarepalms.com sells the Butia Bonetti
: (Var Odorata). Do you know the owner
: and how reliable (authentic sources of
: seeds)is this company?
:
: Can you help or guide me in the right
: direction
: Thank you.
