I need fast responses. Does anyone have any advice on where to go for cheap airfares from West Palm, Florida to Islip Long Island, NY from the 15th to the 19th of October. I need something for under 150. Any info would be highly appreciated.

Cheapest Airfares From West Palm Florida To Islip Long Island, NY?
Unfortunately... since it's a last minute trip, there are no one-way fares from West Palm Beach to Islip for as low as $150. The cheapest airfare I found was for $257.90 which is a non-stop flight operated by Southwest Airlines.

My daughter was born with a birthmark that covers the palm of her left hand, anyone heard of this before?

She is 3 years old, it has grown with her, her pediatrician says that she has never seen anyone have any pigmentation on the palm of their hands. Several other doctors agree, but no one seems to have any theories. It doesn't seem to bother her, actually, she seems pretty proud of it and likes to show it off!

My daughter was born with a birthmark that covers the palm of her left hand, anyone heard of this before?
I had a friend who had something similar. She was healthy and smart with some discoloration on her palm... no biggie.
Reply:My son has a birth mark on his left pointing finger. It actually got me in trouble with WIC until they called his doctor to confirm it was a birthmark. His has also grown with him and it doesn't bother him at all. If your baby is fine in everything else I wouldn't worry about it.
Reply:if it doesn't bother her then let her like it. i have never heard of it on the palm either but i think they can be anywhere.
Reply:i think this is nothing to worry about. if it does not bother her it should not be a problem.








btw i heard if the mother is pregnant and she eats something then scratches a place it will leave a birth mark there on the baby.
Reply:Is she fair skinned and has coffee colored spots and patches on her body? I have that. It is called cafe au lait spots, they are generally common and not harmful. In my case, they were a symptom of neurofibromatosis.
Reply:I've never heard of it no. Take her to a dermatologist if you're concerned.

Does anyone have suggestions on things to do in Palm Beach Florida?

We are taking a mini family vacation (3 days) to West Palm Beach. I thought I read somewhere that they had a place to swim with dolphins (not sea world) and also experience a luau?? Any suggestions for family activities would be greatly appreciated as we are going with a very tight budget to work with.

Does anyone have suggestions on things to do in Palm Beach Florida?
Ive never heard of any place to do either around here and Ive been here most of my life.


If you're into camping at all. You can stay on Peanut Island. Its in the Palm Beach Inlet, they have water taxis from both the Riviera beach marina and Sailfish Marina. You can stay on the island overnight either on the beach or in the designated areas. It's nice and fun for the kids. Also good for a day trip.


Sailfish Marina has a sunset party on thursdays which is nice.
Reply:The West Palm Beach Zoo is a nice alternative to Lion Country Safari, while not as glitzy, its underated as a local attraction.


City Place in downtown can be fun, they often have entertainment %26amp; activities. Check the paper for listings.


What kind of palm tree is it when there are 2 of them & they connect at the bottom but spread out at the top?

these palm trees are kind of small, they dont get very tall

What kind of palm tree is it when there are 2 of them %26amp; they connect at the bottom but spread out at the top?
Hello... Palms exist in this world as - Single stem trunk palm and Multiple / Multipled / multi stem trunks palm.





Examples of a single stem trunk would be Caryota no, Roystonea oleracea, Roystonea regia or even Cocos plumosa, [Queen palm].





http://www.floridagardener.com/pom/queen...


[Picture of queen palm]





These single trunk palm optimal sizes various from palm to palm. Example Roystonea regia, it can grow up to about 50ft to 70ft. But there are also dwarf types which stays almost the same height even they are growing. The shortest tropical palm is the Hyophorbe lagenicaulis. Its max. height is about 12ft only; about the height of a normal 1.7m person.





http://www.arkive.org/species/GES/plants...


[picture of Hyophorbe lagenicaulis]





Also, single stem trunk palms can only be propagated through seeds. You cannot propagate them through cutting the stem and hope that new shoots will be produced from that cutting area.





Refer to this site for examples...





http://www.palmtreesltd.com/trees.html








Now, let's move to multiple stem trunk. These palms are palms which can be propagated through stem-cuttings. Meaning, after you've cut the desired amount of specimen, the cut area will heal itself and grow back new shoots, unlike the single stem palm.





Like i've stated, if you cut a single stem palm, it means = End of life of that palm. Examples of multi-stem palms would be Dypsis lutescens, [Yellow cane plam] caryota mitis, [Fish tail palm] Cyrtostachys renda [Lipstick palm] and Rhapis excelsa.





There are a lot of ways which these multiple stem trunk can reproduce themselves. From what i know, One of the ways is through suckers.





Multi-stem palms don't always stay very short. There are speices which can grow up to about 90ft !! I know there is such a palm called, Oncosperma filamentosum. This tree is now commonly used as a fence in landscape design because of its unique development of spikes on its stems.


Refer to picture below.





http://www.fairchildgarden.org/palmguide... [it's spikes]





http://davesgarden.com/pf/showimage/4501... [a picture of it]





http://www.pacsoa.org.au/palms/Oncosperm...


[Another picture of it]








Both types of palms have very showy and beautiful fruits ranging from red, orange to yellow. Refer to below for pictures!





http://img.search.yahoo.com/search/image...





However, there is something which i would want to share with you. It is regarding - palm like trees. They are not really palms but they looked like palms. Here are two examples :-





Ravenala madagascariensis


Cycas revoluta





http://img.search.yahoo.com/search/image... [picture of Ravenala]





http://img.search.yahoo.com/search/image... [Picture of cycas]








I hope that i've provide you information of the kind of palm you are looking for. But if you want to find out more of the specific kind of palm, i don't think i could be able to help you as insufficient information are not provided. =)








This is all i could give you... =) hope it's what you are looking for.

Is There A Palm Treo Application That Will Allow You To Leave Automatic Voicemails?

I have a Palm Treo 650, and I was wondering if there is a program that allows you to call someone, and instead of talking to them, you directly leave a voicemail. Does anyone know if there is a program that does that?

Does anyone know where you can buy cold hardy palm trees in Missouri?

Looking for cold hardy palm trees around 5 gallon bucket size in Missouri. I need a palm tree that will survive winters that dip down to 5 to 0 degrees from time to time. Is there a nursery where I could pick one up? NOTE I am not looking for seeds I am looking for 5 gallon bucket sized cold hardy palms. Already established! Willing to spend up to 200 dollars. Thanks for your time!!

Does anyone know where you can buy cold hardy palm trees in Missouri?
I'm assuming you've already tried looking at local nurseries? The only place I really know of that specializes in trees is Hanson's Tree Service, which I believe sells trees as well as does services to trees already existing in your landscape. They're located near St. Louis. Otherwise, I would suggest listening to KMOX on Saturday mornings from 9am to 12pm when Mike Miller is on. If you call in, he could probably recommend a place. Sorry if that wasn't much help.

Japanise fiber banana... there are other names they worked wonderfully!!!! Good LUCK
Reply:I live in Florida and never heard of cold weather palm trees. Do you plan on keep them in a green house ? If you plant them out side in Missouri they will freeze and die in the winter.

Wut type of soil is the best for a palm tree?

what nutrient is most needed for growing a palm tree?

Wut type of soil is the best for a palm tree?
I plant mine in the nasty clay soil in my back yard. It's so bad (clay) that the indians used to come here to get the clay to make their pots. I do add sand to break up the clay. So they will grow in most soils because they are survivors of hot salty climates. My advice is not to use soil that dries out easily. They really don't like to be pampered. I bought a sabal palm a couple of years ago and it was only a foot tall but the pot it was in was a foot and a half deep. They have a tremendous tap root that goes straight down. He told me to not overwater while it was in the pot, to let it almost dry out and then give it a good watering-soak it and then leave it alone. I not a good fertilizer but I believe he said something about occasionally fertilizing. It's in the ground now and ever so slowly growing. They are natural here and have been cut down and replaced with faster growing ones. Beware of sago palms, both the king and queen ones, there is a pest that is killing all of them here. It requires treating the tree with pesticide for its lifetime...and then you find out the palm is actually a huge fern. . .Large palm most likely to succeed in a pot-Chinese Fan Palm. One has straight leaves and another has droopy leaves with long tendrils-much prettier and could be a Washitonia. They are almost impossible to kill and come up everywhere like weeds. Be sure to get it outside in the summer for lots and lots of sun.
Reply:malaysia's soil is the best for palm tree.just cheak over there.if u have any friend from over there u ask him he or she can give u right ans otherwise every body just makes u confiused.
Reply:I would assume a sandy type of soil since they grow mostly in Florida and lower Georgia.
Reply:Palm trees grow in places that are warm and have a lot of sunshine. They are medium-sized trees that grow in coastal regions. Palm trees often grow close to water. Maritime weather is best suited forpalm trees. They grow in almost any type of soil ( plz nt desert sand! ). Palm Trees are widely adaptable when it comes to the soil type, and all are highly drought resistant.


The vast majority of palms live in the tropics. Palms are abundant throughout the tropical regions around the world, and are present in almost every type of habitat in the tropics. Diversity is highest in wet, lowland tropical forests.

Help with potting a pygmy date palm?

I ordered a 1 foot pygmy date palm online which is arriving without a pot. I wanted to know

2. What size pot would be good for a 1 foot palm?





3. What kind of fertilizer should I give it, and how ofter?

Help with potting a pygmy date palm?
The pot size depends on how othen you going to want to transplant. If you want to plant it and never move it then your going to want notting smaller then a 15 gl. Your going to want to make sure what ever pot you put it in has a drain hole. Your going to want to water it ever 3-4 days. Im not sure where you live. In the spring and summer you can fritilze ever 2 weeks. You should use grainulated fritalizer. Soil you should get palm mix if you can't find that get cactus mix. Got my info from having a plant nursery. Hope that helps and good luck.
Reply:probably sand and soil mixed 50/50


use the biggest pot you can get for the area it wil be in

Is there a degree in the study of palm trees?

Its probably a focus in botany, but I am looking for a curriculum in palm trees.

Is there a degree in the study of palm trees?
Most undergraduate studies are not that targeted. A BS in botany should suffice to get you started and of course you can pick your electives to get some focus. How close you can get depends on the university. Usually if you want to study something more specific you take a graduate degree with such focus. The University of Florida (Gainesville, FL) seems to have a few classes and does research on palms (example course, Welcome to the Palm Production %26amp; Culture - ORH 4321C ). Perhaps this is a good place to start looking.

How do I change this password for my palm pilot?

I just purchased a USED Sharp palm pilot. I can't get to the address book or memos or anything! I don't know the password!


HOW DO I CHANGE THE PASSWORD?











The model is: OZ-290H II

How do I change this password for my palm pilot?
Does it use Palm Software? If so, here's how to do it.





If you have data you don't want to lose, do this:


On your palm, go to Preferences, probably under the system category.


Select Preferences, then security.


Under Password, it will say %26lt;Assigned%26gt;. Click on that. When the screen comes up asking for your password, there should be a button for %26lt;lost password%26gt;.


Create a new password.





This will remove all records marked Private. Previously synchronized private records will be restored the next time you do a HotSync. You should then be able to open them with your new password that you set.





Otherwise, I think you can use Palm Desktop to rename your Palm and get rid of the old data.
Reply:You have to unblock it, maybe tutorial to unlock on internet

How big of a pot should I plant Trachycarpus Takil Palm and Chusan Palm Trachycarpus Fortunei seeds?

I am talking about palm trees. These are the palms that can grow in zone 6 and withstand below zero tempertures. I have a 10 seeds of each type. Should I plant each seed in there own pot or all pinch pots. I have no idea I am just afraid of planting them wrong and not being able to trasplant them since palm trees have very sensitive roots that are to be transplanted differently than other types of plants. I have never planted a palm tree. I know they have different soil needs than most palms. Also any tips on soil type, growing methods etc. Please let me know.


Thanks

How big do they grow? I usually plant big plants in the bigggest pot I can find...at least 4x the diameter of the trunk I would suggest.


How much will i pay to have someone grind/remove the palm tree stump?

we're having our palm tree taken out by the local utility company,..they'll do it free of charge because its on the power lines....but there'll be a stump to remove too.....what does that usually cost in sacramento?





thx

How much will i pay to have someone grind/remove the palm tree stump?
The easiest way to get out a stump is to do the following, as long as you are comfortable doing it and the stump is away from your house and the stump will fit inside a 5 gallon bucket





1. find a 5 gallon bucket and cut out the bottom so that both bottom and top are open.


2. place bucket over stump and fill with bag of charcoal.


3. douse charcoal with lighter fluid and light.


4.keep watch so that flames do not get out of control.





The charcoal will burn for almost 24 hours but when it is done the stump Will be ashes and you can work the ashes in with the dirt around where the stump used to be. Cover area with top soil and plant grass seed.





This is a inexpensive way of getting rid of the stump, it was taught to me by my dad and he learned it from his dad. It works great as long as you are comfortable doing so.


If not, it will probably cost at least $100 to have the stump ground down, depending on your area.





And not to question your intelligence here, but DO NOT use a plastic bucket for obvious reason. One time I could not find a bucket and used bricks to build a pit around the stump and that worked pretty well too, although it did not burn all of the roots and I had to dig some of them up before I could fill the hole.
Reply:In your town , I don't know what they charge . But in my town , Dallas,Texas , I paid $100.00 per stump and I had 23 of them taken out . Best thing I ever did .
Reply:you can rent the grinder and do it, if not you can usually figure 2 men to do the job, usually at 75.00 an hr
Reply:If they won't remove the stump, I would ask them to cut it as low as possible and cover the stump with a big planter or disuise it with vegetation. That is the easiest way.





The best way to remove a stump by hand is to leave the trunk about six feet high, dig down around it and pull it over with a truck and a rope. Pull and cut underneath at the same time. It is much harder to remove the stump when there is no leverage on it. I have never removed a palm tree though.





Can't you persuade the utility company to pull it out?

Reply:£100+ it will be easier to buy a small one
Reply:according to the type, but the most common ones like queen palms and mexican fan palms sell for at least 1500 dollars. also according to health. a very healthy palm can sell for 2500 dollars. rare palms are unheard of growing that hieght, but would probably sell for 5000 dollars some maybe even 7000 or 10 000

Is there no alternative to palm oil or will the rainforest be gone to make way for more palm trees?

I'm watching Saving Planet Earth on BBC1 (UK) and seeing what is happening to these poor creatures is heartbreaking not to mention seeing the beautiful rainforest being bulldozed to make way for palm tree plantations. Why can't something be done about finding an alternative to palm oil instead of just raising money to fund homes for these homeless wild animals. Why should we allow this to happen? It's a disgrace and something needs to be done.

I have had a sega palm outdoors, in a large pot for over a year. Can I or should I re-plant it in the ground?

The palm is doing well but I have no idea how long it will continue to do well in the pot.

I have had a sega palm outdoors, in a large pot for over a year. Can I or should I re-plant it in the ground?
Sago palms, if planted in the ground, require a tropical, subtropical or Mediterranian climate and excellent drainage. I vote for the pot.
Reply:you could keep it in a pot.if you put it in the ground choose a spot wisely. the roots can lift a house or break plumbing.
Reply:do you mean sago palm? well if you put the plant it in the ground, it will grow bigger and healthier, and if you leave it in the pot, you will have to replant it in a pot every 2 to 3 years, so its ur choice


Changing direction of growth of palm tree?

I have a small palm (5 ft.) that is growing at a 45 degree angle over my driveway. I was thinking of placing a board on the driveway to push the tree so it would grow straighter. I also thought about using a strap to pull on it to make it grow straighter. Would these methods work? Talking to it proved fruitless.

Changing direction of growth of palm tree?
I would have to agree with Tenn. Take a pic w/ scale so the forum members can see it. You can try GardenWeb.com also. They have a palm forum. If it were me, I would dig it up and replant it straight - its only 5'.... Consider the amount of sun and perhaps change locations. I always use root stimulator when transplanting. Ask a forum member about that.
Reply:there is nothing you can do to change the growth habit of that palm.


Its most likely leaning toward the sun.


( you see palms braced in florida to keep them firmly in the ground so they wont blow over ( they have very small root balls and those kinds of palms were most likely recently installed)


It has nothing to do in correcting their growth habit.


Since the palm is only 5 feet tall , (you might) could did it up (be very careful with the root system) and set it back in its hole a little more . I wouldnt recommend it howevcer because some palms dont like to be moved and if you do move them you have to cut off all the fronds so the roots can grow. Its weird I know but the FL state tree (also SC) Sable Palmetto is like that. I really think the palm will correct itself as it gets older . the trunk will grow tall and outgrow the problem concerning the drive way. There are over 3500 different types of palm trees , do you know what type palm tree your talking about. If you could ADD INFO about a specific tree I could help you more. They all have different needs and requirements. The common person just thinks palm tree.


There are palm trees that can live in OHIO - TENNESSEE - COLORADO - NEW JERSEY...I have palm trees taller than my house here in Tennesee but they were imported from India/China..they look like american palms only hardeier...so you see palms can be different in care.

Have one palm tree that uprooted itself and fell. Have another doing the same. What can I do to salvage it?

About 6 months ago, I had a 10 foot palm tree fall on its own. I did noticed that there was something unusual about the roots at the base of the tree before falling. I now notice that same thing happening with another of my palms. It looks like the it's pulling up its own roots.





The nursery around my house mentioned that it was hard soil. I laid some gypsum down but this didn't help. I've recently fertilized the tree.





It looks like the roots are slowly pulling up towards the center at a rate of 1 inch per month. Soon this tree will be down. Any suggestions?

Have one palm tree that uprooted itself and fell. Have another doing the same. What can I do to salvage it?
From what you have expressed, this sounds like a potential issue with the original planting of the Palm tree. First, trees are not capable of "pulling up" their own roots. This is more likely an issue with mass of the root ball becoming larger than the area provided in the initial planting. Typically a root system will bore into the soil to expand this area as the tree grows over time.


If this is not possible ( hard soil , rocky soil ) the root tips will still attempt to grow ( especially if fertilized ) and thereby create an upward pressure on the mass of the tree . In such a scenario, I would suggest expanding the viable soil area for the root system by tilling a greater radius around the existing area to promote root growth extending to at least 1 1/2 times the radius of the crown of the tree.


It is likely that the tree would need to be staked for support while the root system re-establishes itself. There are cautions that need to be taken due to known problems with palms and insect / disease via bark scoring / cutting.

How Can I Help My Palm Trees To Stay Green and Grow?

This past winter was somewhat harsh on my palm trees, and now that it is hot outside and I have been watering my palm trees more readily, my palm trees are still having a hard time from growing and they have lost their "green". Alot of the palms are turning yellow, the new sprout is green, but coming in very slowly.

How Can I Help My Palm Trees To Stay Green and Grow?
Generally, palm trees like lots of sunlight and water and fertilizer. I planted a cabbage palm seed in 2000. When it was about 1 foot tall, we planted it above our laundry's septic tank, and since that time, it has been growing like a mushroom! Believe it or not, it is over 10 feet tall now!

Why does putting salt and an ice cube in the palm of your hand burn you?

I did this and could only clench my fist for a few seconds before the burning pain became unbearable. I was left with a large blister on my palm for weeks. what happened?

Why does putting salt and an ice cube in the palm of your hand burn you?
The salt lowers the temperature at which water freezes so your hand is made colder than if there was so ice. Mythbusters did an experiment wherein they could cool a six pack to a pleasing temperature in mere minutes using salt and ice
Reply:OMG it does, I want to try it, but maybe because the salt is rough?? but I will look it up because I am soo interested I am going to try it tomorrow!

What kind of soil is good for my cat palm tree.?

I got a cat palm tree from a freind and some of the soil is missing and I was wondering if anyone knows what type I need, or some helpful links to some website on how to take care of it. I live in chicago so I don't know if I have to have a differernt type of soil then a warmer city would. The tree is in my house.

What kind of soil is good for my cat palm tree.?
The "Cat palm" is known under the botanical name of; Chamaedorea cataractarum. This particular palm can tolerate a wide range of soil conditions so you can probably use a sterilized potting soil that provides good drainage. From what I've read they like the soil to have a pH in the low (acidic) to moderate (neutral) range.





Your Cat Palm will do well in your home....light requirements are low to moderate (direct sun is not good)


Keep soil moist NOT wet


This palm is hardy and will need fertilizer only 2 times a year. Add a 8-4-12 palm fertilizer with micronutrients to drip line in June and September





Watch for spider mites.





Below are some sites you can use for reference:

How does the Palm Treo compare with an ipod?
The Treo has to store its music and video on SD memory cards, which can be up to 2 gb each, and cost around $50. So basically the Treo doesn't have nearly as much capacity as the iPod. I'd keep the iPod unless you don't have a very big music collection.

How can I kill these small palm trees growing in my yard?
I have this type of bush that just grows wild and crazy on my property. I would cut them back and they would just sprout more and more branches and get huge again.





I recently had tree guys cut and chop up these annoying bushes down to the stumps. Once they removed the main parts, they chopped up the leftover trunks to shreds. Then they told me how to keep them from growing back using rock salt.





I poured rock salt (the kind you use to make ice cream) in all the ragged crevices of the remaining stumps. This seems to have taken care of the problem. The salt apparently kills the roots.





From research I know this method works on lots of plant life, so it may work on your palm trees. It's cheap enough to try, anyway.

Questions about getting a tattoo on palm side of finger?

I was thinking about getting my initials tattooed on the palm side of my finger. Some people say it will fade right away others say it will last so I want to hear from people who have a tattoo there or on their palm. Also how long did it take to heal to where you could use your hand in everyday activities?

Questions about getting a tattoo on palm side of finger?
it fades quicker on the hands and feet, because they are used and exposed to the sun daily. may i ask why you want your initials on your finger? i have no problems with tattoos, but it seems like it would be a waste of time and money. think about getting something more meaningful to you, unless you are prone to forget your name (just kidding). i'm not being mean, just curious. good luck, and don't do it yourself. healing time is probably the same as any other, you'd have to ask the tattooist.
Reply:It all depends on the skin, I have the inside of my lip tattood and everyone said it would fade away and now ive had it for years and it still looks brand new.
Reply:most tattoo shops will not guarantee their tattoos below the wrists and ankles..including the insides of your palms..you use your hands everyday and it WILL fade a hell of a lot quicker then if you got it somewhere else..also most shops make you pay for a touch up..my advice is get it done somewhere else..even getting it on top of your finger rather then palm side would be better..
Reply:I recently inquired about getting a tattoo on my hand and was told they could not go past the wrist.


It will fade in time they all do, just take care of it and have it touched up from time to time.


Good Luck.
Reply:I have both palms tattooed. The first time I got the the first one , most of it did fade, but then the guy who re-did it, did it one dot at a time and very deep, and it stayed. When he did my other hand it stayed the first time. You just have to find some one who knows what they're doing. It did hurt more on the palms than other places, but I could use my hands right away, if I was careful. I've had mine for ten years now.
Reply:It will fade quickly and is really painful procedure (palm side is highly innervated and thus extremely sensitive to pain) ... it will take at least 10 days to use your hand after tattooing.
Reply:i have a friend who has a tattoo on his finger. it will take multiple applications for it to be a solid tattoo and it will still fade over time. he has had the tattoo done twice in four months and i think will have it done again this weekend. every time he goes to get tattooed he gets it done again because it looks patchy.

What is the Northern Range of Palm Tree Growth in North America?

I know that on the West Coast, types of Palm Trees can grow (I am not sure if these are natural or just transplanted) as far north as Vancouver, BC, in Canada. I have heard that on the East Coast they occur naturally as far North as North Carolina. I have no idea about central North America.





So my question is what is the northernmost point that Palm Trees grow naturally on the East Coast, West Coast and in the centre of the continent, and what is the northernmost point on the East Coast, West Coast and Central that they can survive in if transplanted?





Lets say with natural conditions, that is, the climate is capable of supporting them without humans watering them, ect.

What is the Northern Range of Palm Tree Growth in North America?
The vast majority of palms live in the tropics. Palms are abundant throughout the tropical regions around the world, and are present in almost every type of habitat in the tropics. Diversity is highest in wet, lowland tropical forests, especially in ecological "hotspots" such as Madagascar, which has more endemic palms than the entire continental Africa. Colombia may have the highest number of palm species in one country [3].





It is estimated that only 130 palm species grow naturally beyond the tropics, most of which grow in the subtropics. The northernmost palm is Chamaerops humilis, which reaches 44°N latitude in southern France where a mediterranean climate makes weather milder than other places as far north. The southernmost palm is the Rhopalostylis sapida, which reaches 44°S on the Chatham Islands where an oceanic climate has a similar warming effect .





So I guess if you found the latitude in North America that basically matches 44 N in southern France, palm trees should grow there as well.


The best info that I could find, is that certain species of palm can grow as far north as Ontario, Canada (N 44° 28' )


I have seen Palms in parts of upper Washington State, and in Maine as well, but whether they're natives or introduced species, I don't know.





I know it doesn't fully answer your question, but it's the best I can do.
Reply:well i know they die here in Wisconsin

What is the difference between a coconut, banana and a pineapple tree? Aren't they all in the palm tree fam?

My friend and I were driving to Florida and we were just talking about funny things. Well we came across the discussion of palm trees. In movies you see monkeys climbing trees to get bananas, or climbing trees to get coconuts. And we came across the pineapple, which resembles a palm tree.....Well I was just wondering is it all the same? Are they all in the same family??? The silly things you do when your in the car for 15 hours straight.....hahahha Thanks

What is the difference between a coconut, banana and a pineapple tree? Aren't they all in the palm tree fam?
No the three plants that you have mentioned are not from the same family . Only one thing is common for them and that is ; all the three are Monocotyledonous plants ( Monocots for short )





1) Coconut ==The Coconut Palm (Cocos nucifera) is a member of the Family Arecaceae (palm family). It is the only species in the genus Cocos, and is a large palm, growing to 30 m tall, with pinnate leaves 4-6 m long, pinnae 60-90 cm long; old leaves break away cleanly leaving the trunk smooth.





The trunk is generally unbranched but branched coconuts palms are also reported. Branching may occur due to injury caused by insect pests.





The term coconut refers to the nut of the coconut palm, which commonly is referred to as a nut, and is in fact not a fruit, as some say.





The coconut palm is grown throughout the tropical world. It is so common in Kerala that one of its popular name in Malayalam is Keram derived from Kerala. In fact, it is the state tree of Kerala. Another common name of coconut in Malayalam is Thenga and the palm itself is called Thengu. Virtually every part of the coconut palm has some human use, culinary and non-culinary and is justifiably called as a kalpa vruksham.





2 )Banana===Banana is the common name used for herbaceous, cultigenic plants of the genus Musa, and is also the name given to the fruit of these plants.





They are native to the tropical region of Southeast Asia, the Malay Archipelago, and Australia.





Today, they are cultivated throughout the tropics.





Banana plants are of the family Musaceae.





They are cultivated primarily for their fruit, and to a lesser extent for the production of fiber and as ornamental plants.





Because of their size and structure, banana plants are often mistaken for trees.





The main or upright growth is called a pseudostem, which for some species can obtain a height of up to 2–8 m, with leaves of up to 3.5 m in length.





Each pseudostem produces a single bunch of bananas, before dying and being replaced by a new pseudostem.





The banana fruit grow in hanging clusters, with up to 20 fruit to a tier (called a hand), and 3-20 tiers to a bunch.





The total of the hanging clusters is known as a bunch, or commercially as a "banana stem", and can weigh from 30–50 kg.





The fruit averages 125 g, of which approximately 75% is water and 25% dry matter content.





Each individual fruit (known as a banana or 'finger') has a protective outer layer (a peel or skin) with a fleshy edible inner portion.





Typically the fruit has numerous strings (called 'phloem bundles') which run between the skin and the edible portion of the banana, and which are commonly removed individually after the skin is removed. Bananas are a valuable source of Vitamin A, Vitamin B6, Vitamin C, and potassium.





3)Pineapple.==The pineapple (Ananas comosus) is a tropical plant and fruit (multiple), probably native to Brazil or Paraguay. It is a tall (1–1.5 m) herbaceous perennial plant with 30 or more trough-shaped and pointed leaves 30–100 cm long, surrounding a thick stem.





The leaves of the Smooth Cayenne cultivar mostly lack spines except at the leaf tip, but the Spanish and Queen cultivars have large spines along the leaf margins.








Pineapples are the only bromeliad ( Family Bromeliaceae) fruit in widespread cultivation.
Reply:Coconut does grow n a tree and a palm type tree.


Pineapple does not grow on a tree it grows on a plant.


Banana also does not grow on trees they grow on plants as well. \\





I know many will argue that bananas do grow on trees. There are bananas growing beside my house and believe me they are not trees.





Look them up in the encyclopedia britanica and read about them.

There's something about when your palm itches and money and then when the sole of your foot itches, something about a journey? Does anyone know what the actual saying/superstition is?





I think there's a specific foot part of it too? The left palm itching means something different than the right?

When is it safe age to practice iron palm?

My son is worrying about his strength and has learned about iron palm training, but im a little concern if hes the right age to train it (14 years old) is it alright to train it even though his bone structure is still growing?

When is it safe age to practice iron palm?
It's best if he starts later on say 18 or so. It also helps if he thinks through why he wants to learn iron palm. Iron palm can deform one's hands to a degree which includes thick skin and calluses. It may look ugly in future. Does he want that. There are some sacrifices to certain martial arts.


14 is a bit early both in terms of age and maturity. Unless he is very determined that this is for him, he should acknowledge that he knows the way to achieve it, but should take time to think before committing himself to it. There are other numerous types and styles of martial arts he can try and practice. Iron palm is not that suitable for the modern day person who doesn't have to have such dangerous and deforming martial arts.
Reply:it's ok... my hands were all beat up by age 16... break boards with fingertips, ridge hand on either side ... palm smash bricks, punch more boards than most 30 yo men in my class.... i broke my knuckles half a dozen times, and have one scar from a piece of brick, that got embedded in my hand... i am now 28 with fully functional fingers ... no problems whatso-ever, and i have been out of the breaking boards and bricks for 10 years... it is probably better at a young age before your body, actually "hardens"... because you reginerate faster.... as a parent myself.. i would hate to watch my child go through that... and if you are concerned, but still want him to get self defense training.... look into boxing or Muay Thai (Muay Thai is what i study now)... but then he will get hit in the face... black eyes, bruised legs.... but realize... your 14 year old son is learning how to become a man... pain is a very good life lesson... and working through pain is an even better one... when he learns to overcome fears or problems to achieve his goals... he will be a great man... good luck
Reply:Is he trying to drive a nail through woods with his bare hand or sumtin? Why not Boxing, Muay Thai, Kick Boxing. Its better with self defence. When you go full contact You'll learn more.

Reply:I had an "iron palm" by age six...I didn't think it was a sport though I just thought it felt good...LOL

Reply:It depends a lot on the method used and weather his instructor knows what he is doing. Done properly it will be good for him. Done poorly it can do permanent damage. I recommend Master Cheung's methods we use them successfully at our school for years with no problems with our practitioners.

Reply:As Onyx stated, click the home button (typically a house icon on most palms) and then hit the menu button (typically depicted as a few horizontal lines and a down arrow) and select delete.





(Now THIS is where most people get scared, because inevitably you have an icon that is highlighted on your screen ... so it *appears* that you are going to delete the highlighted icon ... NOT SO)





After you select DELETE, you get a list of files and programs on your device and the SD card (if you have one). Highlight the program/file you wish to delete and it's GONE!

What type of Internet does the Palm Centro have?

The phone I have now is the Motorola Q, and im looking into getting a new phone. Im trying to decide between the New Motorola Q9c and the Palm Centro. Before I decide I wanted to know if the Palm has just plain mobile internet or full internet like the Motorola Q has. I really love having the full internet options that motorola offers, but the price of the Palm Centro is so much more reasonable. Can someone help me out.

What type of Internet does the Palm Centro have?
It has full internet options, however you can still access Mobile web pages when available. Some pages are too large to load completely, but that doesn't happen to often with me. Keep in mind that this is a Palm OS, not Windows Mobile. it is going to be very different that what you are used to, I suggest going to the store and playing with the centro first to make sure you like the way it runs.


Suggestions for sick queen palm tree?

Planted 2 months ago. It gets plenty of water. I have been using B vitamins and palm tree spikes. It is starting to look a little droopy and some of the fronds are turning brown. Pineapple palm is doing great in same conditions.

Suggestions for sick queen palm tree?
queen palms are susesitble to leathal yellowing a serious desiese that has no cure. Dont worry it is a plant desise that cannot make any of your other plants sick. you can call a landscaper and he/she can give your plants shots to control the sickness. this is only one possiblility, you may just have it in too acitic soil and you will have to move it
Reply:If it is cracked at the bottom any where that is one big thing that disease does. Pour half bleach and half water in the crack. If not queen palms all was have a iron defiance. Put iron ite around it and make sure not to give it a lot of water.


What to do with palm tree sprouts?

I have a relatively young palm tree in my backyard (about 5 1/2 feet tall not counting the fronds), which has several baby palm trees trying to grow beneath it (little green fronds). I keep cutting them back, but I am thinking there has to be a better solution... ?

What to do with palm tree sprouts?
Some palms grow from seeds, like coconuts. Some palms grow from spreading roots, like fish tale palms or acacias. If you have spreaders growing from roots, its OK to have new shoots. Its the way they grow. Cutting the new shoots may kill some palms.
Reply:just dig them up and replant them somewhere else

Reply:Get some anvil style pruning shears and just lop them off at the ground once a year.

How do I view videos from my Palm 680 on the computer?

Hi,


I've taken video on my palm and saved it to the SD card, but when I want to view the videos on Windows Media it won't let me. Any know why? Do I need to convert the video. If so, how? Thank in advance!

How do I view videos from my Palm 680 on the computer?
The default "save to" destination on your pc is in my documents%26gt;my videos%26gt;palm videos. They are created in the 3gp format which is native to a lot of mobile phones. There is purchasable software that will convert the video, or you can play it on your computer with the quicktime media player... hope this helps.

Coconut palm tree full grown, where do you get one and cheap at that. I am in california.?

I want a cocnut palm for landscaping my house. I do not want a small one. I want a full grown tree. Atleast 10 feet tall. I do not want to spend alot, so I need one that is at a bargain price

Coconut palm tree full grown, where do you get one and cheap at that. I am in california.?
Place a request in both the Freecycle and Craigslist for your area.


Here in Tampa there seems to always be free mature palms available due to construction, additions or change of landscaping.





You might also start to be aware of trees on lots that are marked for future construction [commercial and residential ].


Often these trees are removed and discarded.


Contact the developer.





Good Luck
Reply:So. Ca. has lots of nurseries that supply comercial landscapers. Palm trees can get expensive, but ten feet is hardly mature so may not be too bad. In Orange County try Sakioka nursery. Say hi to George for me.


Do you really want a coconut palm though? When those coconuts fall they can be a hazard, really. I grew up in So. Ca. and only saw a very few coconut palms, alway planted away from buildings. Maybe you mean one of those "mini" coconuts where the nuts only get about 1-2 inches. Grow all around Riverside and San Bernardino.

Reply:I say. What a spiffy idea.





To Make a Fake Palm Tree You Will Need:





1 Yucca Branch





Silk Banana Tree leaves





Power drill





Black Marker





The first step of to cut your yucca tree branch to the height you want. If you want yoru faux palm tree to be as tall as your ceiling when finished, then cut it about 1.5 feet shorter than the height of the ceiling.





You can also try using bamboo stalks in place of the yucca tree branch. Bamboo is more readily available at yoru local home improvement store.





Now, you will need about 15 or so silk banana tree leaves. These should be separated and have their own stiff stalk end to insert into the faux palm tree.





Now, at the top end of the yucca tree branch you need to drill small 1 - 2 inch deep holes to insert your silk banana tree leaves.





Simple take a black sharpie marker and make dots around the top 1 foot of the branch. Pre drill the holes where you made the marks.





Now, do not drill through the whole Yucca Tree branch.





If you are using bamboo you will see that it is hollow on the inside, which does not lend itself well to holding the banana tree leave in your tropical bedroom décor. So, use hot glue placed inside the hole to help secure the ends of the banana tree leaves.





You could also slide in some floral foam inside the hollow bamboo. This will give your leaves something to sick into.





The glue is also a fine idea if you are using the Yucca tree branch as well. Small kids may have a tendency to pull at the leaves. The glue will help hold together your fake palm tree.





Once you have all of your silk banana tree leaves in place you should start to bend them into dropping shape. Most likely they will be sticking straight out.





Your fake palm tree is finished. IN addition to a tropical bedroom decor this fake palm tree would also look good next to a tiki bar for a back yard party!
