I do not know if it is a male of female.
Palms #1 and #4 are windmill palms (Trachycarpus fortunei). his is a very nice, hardy palm species
that does well in this area. These two palms will continue to omplement the building after palms #2
and #3 are removed. I recommend fertilizing palm #4 during the spring and summer of 2005 to try
and increase its size relative to palm #1.
