Tokyo Queens 東京クイーン
It’s not often you find Queen Palms in Tokyo. Generally, the temperatures are too low in the winter, and the humidity too high in the summer.
ロベリニー栽培 Roebi Farming
People really love the miniature date palm, Phoenix roebelenii. It is small and manageable enough to be inside. Plus it is cold-hardy enough to be outside in a Zone 9 area (like Tokyo). This picture shows a farming partner of ShimodaPalms.com. These Roebis are being sold as potted palms, but quite often, they are also raised…
Washingtonia Wonderland
I love this little part of Minami-Izu. This grove of Washingtonia and Date Palms sits on a spit of land off of Yumigahama beach. The benches allow people to sit among the trees and watch the sunset on the other side of the gracefully-curving beach.
