Drought Tolerant Palms: The Jelly Palm (Their seeds make yummy jelly) at the Gregory Palm Farms (714) 814-8525/760)975-4605 Canary Palms, Date palms, triangle palm

Hi!

EMAIL US AT GREGPALMS1@GMAIL.COM ANY QUESTIONS, APPOINTMENTS,                                         PRICING, HELP!     OPEN SATURDAY
5th-generation Gregory Palms farmer enjoys the shade of the Pindo palm (aka the Jelly palm, aka Butia palm).


The effects of many years of drought is quite obvious. All one has to do is drive through any suburban neighborhood in Southern California and they will see dying lawn after dying lawn. Apartment complexes and businesses plazas have put up signs asking their residents and patrons to excuse the appearance of their landscape while they make an effort to adhere to the water conservation policies.

So is there a light at the end of this dry and parched tunnel?

The answer is sort of. While we may not be able to perform rain dances to summon a downpour of clear, liquid gold, we can ease the suffering on our landscapes.

Replacing grass lawns and yards with drought-tolerant plants and trees not only helps efforts with conserving water but also makes that walk to your front doorstep a lot less depressing! Instead of using grass to cover your lawn, opt for rock or wood chips with succulents and other drought-friendly plants. 


You can still have the luscious green yard without breaking the bank with water fines.


The Jelly palm (first picture above) is another great alternative for your lawn as it requires little watering. Its blue-green, recurved leaves will give any lawn a more exotic and island-like feel. It can withstand high temperatures as well as temperatures down to 10-degrees Fahrenheit.  It also produces a sweet/tart fruit that is great for making jellies and wine from.


Stay hydrated with Jelly palm wine and jelly!

PHOTO AND VIDEO TOUR OF THE Gregory Palm Farms (714)814-8525/760)975-4605 SHOP FROM THE COMFORT OF YOUR HOME! PALMS FOR ALL OCCASIONS-OPEN DAILY


For me, coming to work everyday at Gregory Palm Farms is like escaping to my own private little island. , GPF has the paradise vibe minus the tourists and overpriced Pina Coladas. It can be easy to forget that these gorgeous palms are a part of a business and not just here for us to admire. With the largest palm tree inventory in southern California, the Gregory Family takes pride in the palms they grow.



And it shows. Every time I need to grab something that's across the farm, I take the more scenic route to my destination. The shade and slight breeze of the palm fronds towering above, soothes me and any stressors of the day are quickly reduced to a minimum. At times, it really makes me wish I had a bigger yard so I could plant a Canary palm or a couple of Queen Palms and just lounge in a hammock with a good book. That would be all the therapy anyone would ever need!

Walking through this area reminds me of LACMA's light pole exhibit but with more nature!



But what makes this palm farm so unique besides the fact that the Gregory's grow each of their palms, is the variety. It's like walking through an exotic three-dimensional collage of palms. From short to tall, Sago to Canary, the Gregory's have spent decades growing a wide collection of palms that is unlike any other I have yet to see at Pauma Valley Farm.

Hard to believe this little road doesn't lead off to a sandy beach somewhere.


Triangle palms create the perfect shady canopy.

HOW DID WE FIND A WAY TO INSTALL THOSE DATE PALMS IN MISSION VIEJO? (STARTING AT $200.00 PER FOOT! )BY GREGORY PALM FARMS 714-814-8525/760-975-4605 GPF DID IT AGAIN!

Hi!

We were in Mission Viejo yesterday for an installation.
The obstacles were many!
 Between the narrow entrance to the back yard, the plumbing/irrigation holes/trenches, 
the cement work for the pool and the plain ole access, made this job tougher and bit more stressful.

BEFORE

This is the tiny access we had to bring a 5,000 pound Phoenix Dactylifera Date palm
AND
the equipment that is needed for the planting. 

We managed to do it anyway!!!!

One and then two...

AFTER



We got it in there and saved all the flatwork with layers of plywood and our technical equipment - ran by our awesomely talented driver, Kevin!

PHOENIX Dactylifera Date Palms STARTING AT $200.00 PER FOOT! GREAT VALUE!

It's better to plant the palm trees before the cement work!

Not every job is a fast one!
Not every job has the access we would like!
Not every job is easy,
if they all were.... we would be happier for sure but  it is what we do!

Do you need palms installed... where???
Gregory Palm Farms is the team for you.
