Back in Indiana, just put the queen palm back into the ground with my dog Jake in the foreground. The queen palm was bought a couple of years ago locally and spend the winter in the foyer of my home where there are very tall ceilings. The nursery where I bought it in Carmel has a couple of them this year so it might get a brother. #palmtrees #indianapalmtrees #queenpalm #syagrusromanzoffiana #tropical #carmelindiana #beagle (at Carmel, Indiana)

A good photo to finish up the year in Indiana. Snowing on a Mediterranean fan palm on Christmas Eve. Off to Florida! Merry Christmas!!! #indianapalmtrees #snowonpalmtrees #mediterraneanfanpalm #chamaeropshumilis #carmelindiana (at Carmel, Indiana)

Summer / Winter comparison. I hate winter! #palmtrees #indianapalmtrees #indianagarden #winter (at Carmel, Indiana)

This is what you need to do with your cold-hardy palms in Indiana during the winter. These stay on my three seasons porch all winter long while I’m in Florida. There are a lot fewer palms this year since I’m going to try to keep more of them inside the house this year. There are two sago palms, three Mediterranean fan palms, two windmill palms, one canary date palm and one Chinese fan palm spending the winter on the porch this year. I will show pictures of the hundred plus plants and palm scattered throughout the house in other posts. #palmtrees #indoorpalm #indoorpalmtrees #indoorplants #indianapalmtrees #coldhardypalms #trachycarpusfortunei #phoenixcanariensis #livistonachinensis #chamaeropshumilis #cycasrevoluta (at Carmel, Indiana)

It's time to bring the last of the palms inside for the winter. The largest one is an 7-foot (2 m) queen palm. It was happy in this place last winter. It's next to a 10-foot (3 m) bamboo palm. There's a lady palm in the foreground. #palmtrees #indoorplants #indoorpalmtrees #indianapalmtrees #queenpalm #syagrusromanzoffiana #bamboopalm #chamaedoreaseifrizii #ladypalm #rhapisexcelsa (at Carmel, Indiana)

The challenge of trying to grow coconuts indoors once it's gotten too cold to leave them outside! #coconutpalm #pottedpalm #indoorplants #palmtrees #indoorpalm #cocosnucifera #indianapalmtrees (at Carmel, Indiana)

This coconut palm has been in a pot for two summers now. We'll see how it does it on its second winter. #palmtrees #coconutpalm #cocosnucifera #pottedpalm #pottedplants #indianapalmtrees #palmeras (at Carmel, Indiana)
