Thinking of taking my palm tree to the sunbed shop

[Tail End Charlie]

Yes i did think/worry about that. With my bathroom window being fairly high up (about 15ft),it's quite hard to make out what the plant is. I'm worried incase someone sees it,thinks dope and calls 101 and the plod come round to see if they'll be met with a cat pee/citrusy smell as i open the door. Oh but hang on! They don't respond to 101 calls,only take down your details when you phone them.. I should be alright then.

The cat pee smell is a sign of a crystal meth lab. You got one of those going as well??!!

Couldn't you just rotate him after a while so the other leaves get the sunshine? Or just not worry, after all plants don't end up in ideal places in nature and they usually thrive.

I must've missed this when it first appeared, but (and I'm not an Accy-knocker) this has to be one of the funniest openings to a thread I've ever read on here
Fair play to you Accy ... just make sure it gets enough light, don't prune the top too much as it gets bigger, or you'll just be left with a stump

Was that the advice given to you by Miss Goodbody.

When I opened this I was expecting an oversize Palm Tree being donated to a Sunbed Shop as some sort of ornament.

Classic Accy thread.

By coincidence Postie,one of the residents in these flats ended up here because her boyfriend's terrace house in Accrington set on fire because he'd overloaded the sockets due to having turned the upstairs into a cannabis farm. He's now on remand while she's since done a moonlight flit.

Just thought i'd post a couple of pics of the palm tree you've always wondered about! 'He's' been left alone for a few months,hence the weed/grass growing in his pot,but i'm going to take that out today. I suppose he'd have grown much bigger if planted in the ground,or a bigger pot,but if i move flat he'd have to stay behind,so....

I still can't decided whether to take them ( I now have two ) or not.🤔 They've had a good few days in the sun, after summer eventually arrived and they look quite healthy, so maybe wait till the winter when they'll need it.

You could move to the south coast or maybe build a small greenhouse. Failing that bring him down here and I'll put it with mine.

Edit: I think you may have a King Palm.

Five years later. These things grow big.
