Today I got my coconut tree from Key West!! This is the only coconut tree in about 1000 miles south and about 3,000 miles west. This is going to be a challenge for sure. In the summer it gets between 80-85 degrees, but in the winter I'll have to keep it upstairs in the sun room where it will be 70-75 degrees everyday.

Now that's cool!
The YouTube vid wouldn't connect for me. I so wanted to see the coconut tree.

Works fine, now. For some reason, I was expecting to see roots on the bottom, not a coconut...LOL Whatever made you decide to grow a coconut tree?

My friend lives in Key West he has to hire people to remove the coconuts from trees in front yard. People have been sued when a coconut falls hitting someone on sidewalk.
