Re: Meyer Palms - Photos and Pricing of 12-15' CT
The following attachments are various palm trees that are available. In regard to your question about survival without water for a period of 7-10 days, the 2 that would be the most sensitive to that are the Majestic Palm and the Bismarkia Palm. I have to caution you about the Bismarkia because as I mentioned it is a very sensitive palm to transplant and transport. It would be more successful in a container and not at a mature size. Perhaps, even grown from seed as I have discovered. The pricing guideline varies from palm to palm. When you look over the material and decide what works best for you, if you could please inform me of the size you would like I will be able to disclose prices immediately. If you have any further questions or requests for variety please let me know and I will get it to you as soon as possible. I look forward to hearing from you.

Those are great Jeffrey, However the Sabal showed is not Sabal "causarium" its Sabal "palmeto" although it is as resistant, It will be great to locate some "causarium" species. I looked with the nursery I'm working with and they found some nice one but not as tall as I expected (pictured attached). Regarding Bismarck palm I'm not quite agree about the fact they suffer from lack of water (attached fact sheet) they naturally from the Madagascar desert so it's in their genius to handle drought!
I'm almost done with sketches, plans and plant list quantities, I'll send you all this tomorrow.
Best,
Kévin.
Ps; Do you want me to deal directly with Richard Kahn? I also asked the people I usually work with a quotation, but I have no problem working with someone else you are more familiar with...

where is your nursery, can they deliver to island.
They are in Florida, Homestead, they ship everywhere in the Caribbean, through tropical shipping and or King Ocean. I attached you pictures of Sabal naturally growing on the driest part of St Barth.
