It's 70° in there right now.
Brandon calls it the tropical plant spa. Outside: Connecticut. Inside: Florida — heat, light, water, and a crew that knows every tree by name until spring.
How your palm winters
You don't lift a thing. The whole thing is three steps, and two of them are ours.
We pick up
Before the first frost, our crew comes to you — we dig, we lift, we haul. Your yard is tucked in for winter.
They winter at the spa
All winter in our 70-degree greenhouse in Hamden — watered, watched, and warm while everything outside is frozen.
Spring delivery
When the cold breaks, they come back and go right back in the ground. Same palms, another summer. Year after year.
See inside the plant spa
News 3 came to see where the palms go in winter. Brandon gave them the tour.
The honest part
Christmas palms are temperamental sleepers — even in perfect greenhouse conditions, they don't all make it, and we'll tell you that before we take yours. Most of our customers treat those like annuals and store the hardier varieties. We'd rather tell you the truth in September than surprise you in May.
The greenhouse has a ceiling — literally. When storage is spoken for, it's spoken for, and the calls start in September. Reserve now and your palms are on the pickup route before the frost date.
