I'm trying to create a backyard tropical oasis in the Pacific Northwest, which is difficult but certainly not impossible. Home Depot currently has an amazing sale on Windmill Palms ($44) which eventually grow to 20 ft tall. Since the weather was muy caliente last weekend I headed to Home Depot, bought another Palm and put it in the backseat. On the way home I saw some bemused expressions having the Palm in the back of my convertible. One more Northwest tree gone, one more palm planted!
