Default Huge Sago Palm for the taking

I have a huge sago palm in front of my house.


About 20 years ago I assisted in salvaging several similarly sized
palms displaced by construction along North MoPac. The construction
company dug them out and laid them down for us. The root ball was
like a turnip and not all that big, but all the dirt was lost.

A group of us dragged these onto a flatbed trailer using a 4-ton
electric winch. This was not an easy job as these palms are heavy.

But a mature palm is a nice asset and someone would want them. If you
could find a recipient. How about a picture on the internet and
calling the local landscape designers?
