Sago palm



When it bloomed last year, I discovered that we have a male Sago palm! I was surprised to see its unique bloom again so soon, having once read sagos don't bloom every year. These plants have to be 15 - 20 years old before they are mature enough to bloom, another reason to be surprised since I just planted it a year and a half ago and had no idea of its age.

On another note, today is our two year anniversary of buying this special home and moving here from our Portofino condo. It surely is a lot of work and a bit of a money-pit, as is most any house on a barrier island, but I adore it!
