The palm trees in my area are in little danger from the current line-up of tropical storms. If a windstorm does hit during the coming weeks of hurricane high-season — well, you’d think they were just about designed to weather the bad weather. Give one point to natural selection!

We’ve had so much rain, our ground is still sodden, so our stumpy palmettoes, over-grown pines, and top heavy Bradford pears are not safe at all if we catch the SW quadrant of Earl. I always hold my breath from August 1st through mid-October.
