Default Palm trees (was Roses) in Scotland

Janet,

There are a few palm trees growing in gardens here in Dunbar, East
coast of Scotland. Not known as "Sunny Dunny" for nothing! Cordyline
australis is growing fast and furious in a container in my own garden,

regards,

David

Sorry to piggy back but I seem to have a memory of
palm trees growing in Scotland does anyone have a
link for where these are grown ?


Cordyline australis aka "Torbay palm" or"Cabbage palm" can be seen in
gardens on the mild west coast from Galloway to Ullapoole. Chusan palm
also grows here but isn't quite so common.
