  • if it is at least 2 feet from your house u may just cut the roots between

    the tree and your house if u want to save it--u can buy a foot long blade

    2 go on a reciprocal saw that will cut n 2 the ground--ken

  • no, you don't hurt it at all. There are quite a number of palms with rough trunks

    that can be trimmed and clipped.

  • r u selling the bottle palm? how much? how much is the shipping cost to Los Angeles? Where r u located at?

  • @pokenkoy sorry, we don't ship our palms-

  • the bottle palm I trimmed in the video is probably 5-6 years old.

  • nice tips... can we grow them as indoor ??

  • you can pretty much grow any palm indoors if you have a good light source inside and give them water as needed (which will be less than they would need outdoors) You can do a search on the internet to learn more just seach in quotes "growing palms indoors" or "care for indoor palm trees". thanks for your comment-- Ken
