It is so exotic for having them around so they just take the risk.<br />We had at least one sunny day without rain, for swimming and the rest for visiting friends and shopping.

But their habitat is such that The Netherlands will not be an ideal environment for them to grow in. We don't have these in Georgia but other varieties. Along the coast you see even more plam trees, it always looks so exotic and we already feel fortunate for having our own palm tree when looking from the balcony...<br />Hugs and happy weekend!<br />MarietteMariette VandenMunckhof-Vedderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16877699174880945452noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1974466215163623524.post-39062000592172252492013-11-09T17:26:28.533-05:002013-11-09T17:26:28.533-05:00Liebe Ruth,

Sometimes they are very sensitive to certain diseases and its quite a loss after 20 years.<br />You for sure will be looking forward to seeing your daughter back home; arriving from Amsterdam airport.

Tunisia is producing lots of dates with their hot and dry dessert climate and there are hundreds of varieties of date palms too. But those fruits on the branches, the ones that are being sold by florists looked very similar to the ones in Florida. <br />Hugs to you and happy weekend!<br />MarietteMariette VandenMunckhof-Vedderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16877699174880945452noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1974466215163623524.post-40557222946683367042013-11-08T13:12:31.572-05:002013-11-08T13:12:31.572-05:00Dearest Tamago,

De bladeren hebben een bijbelse betekenis omdat het deze palmtakken zijn die gebruikt werden op Palmzondag. Ja zeker hebben palmbomen iets magisch, een exotisch gevoel wat gepaard gaat met warmte.
