Was wondering if you guys had any recommendations for plant companions for jelly palm? Planning on using as a wind break to protect my ice cream banana. Its on a hill, plenty of water. Yearly temps between 45-73. Located near the ocean
Thanks!

Since you are looking for a windbreak what about Saw Palmetto?

Maybe some pineapple plants and marigolds?

Thanks for the suggestions! Good call on the marigold, haven't thought of that. And it isn't warm enough for true pineapple, but I'm thinking of going for something Patagonian Pineapple and trying it out ( Greigia sphacelata). We'll see about saw palmetto; not sure how useful it would be for us, but this i always a work in progress.

That's a very big dog. I think I want to go home now and hug this tiny ad:
