This plant was a 12ft palm tree with a single trunk in 1996. In the spring of 1997, after a bad winter with 2 feet of snow the tree appeared to be dead. But it grew back with an astonishing 21 trunks. Over the years some of those trunks have been snapped off, usually be small boys swinging on them, but new trunks always re-emerge from the base. This very exotic palm is one of the great survivors, even in our climate.
