Nyssa sylvatica and Crape Myrtle need chill!

These two are next in line for the fridge. Just not enough chill here in Port Charlotte and we have had a mild winter though January had a rare two days with highs in the mid 40s back to back.

Thank you all for your analysis! As much as I hope it is a species, as I am a total species snob, I think it is a small statured Phalaenopsis white hybrid from a big box store.

My favorite orchids are Pleurothallids

I don't currently have any Pleuro but I intend to pick one up later this year.

Can anyone ID this NOID palm. I am thinking it is a Ptychosperma sanderianum but not sure.

Adonidia merrillii

Looking good after the winter. I double bundled the crown shaft and trunk for the lows in the 30s since it is easy to do.

Jamaican Tall Coconuts from a specialist in Jupiter, Florida

Tillandsia recurvata

Also not as common in Charlotte County (I think Tillandsia usenoides and T. recurvata prefer more "cool hours") I brought a few on my mounts and one grew on my little wall.
