Darell, mine have about 6' tall trunks, the trunk on one of them has gotten really big around like close to 36" diameter while the other has remained skinnier at around 20". Since they are hybrids is guess one has a little more filifera in it. Both are at around 12-16' tall. Sounds like yours are doing fine.
: Hey Bill,
:
: Have your Mexican Fan
: Palms/Washingtonias grown as much as
: hers? I also bought 2-3 at Wal Mart
: and one at Lowes 2 years ago but mine
: are not near that tall. Mine are only
: about 8 feet tall. Do you think in the
: third year my palms will experience
: more growth?
