The poor thing was starting to get yellow fronds because I couldn’t water it much, and it couldn’t hold water because it was all roots. I’ve had the soil for ages, but kept putting off the repotting. I wish I hadn’t, and I hope Palmzilla forgives me. It looked so healthy after spring and summer outside. 🙁

Anyway, it definitely needed repotting.

I had to literally cut the pot off because there was no pulling it out. The white bits are where it reached down into the cachepot outside.

No soil left!

I was going to put it into its cachepot, but it wasn’t big enough. Since I almost never throw any pots out, I still had the huge ones from the arborvitae we bought the first year we were at 544, and that was big enough. I also had the sage green pots I bought for the arborvitae before I put them in the ground, and once I paint it (faded from the sun on one side) one of those will be Palmzilla’s cachepot. I didn’t take a picture because Palmzilla looks yellow and sad, but hopefully, it’s not too late.

Bulkadoo was busy today, keeping my river oats seeds safe from hungry mice.

My new feeder wasn’t rejected; someone(s) sampled from two holes.

I also bought a 24′ fiberglass extension ladder this morning. Wasn’t any more expensive than it would’ve been at Lowe’s, and shipping was free.
