Palmed Off

Now I’m all for getting rid of ridiculous palm trees from gardens, but you’ve got to finish the job. This seems to have been left as an example to other palm trees to not think about setting up here in Bayswater. Looks worse than the original tree. Reminds me a little of the cocos crucifix place.

    The miniature of Israel’s wall is a particularly nice touch. Quite a statement, really.

    Bedfordians: Yes, a bit of tinsel and a few lights could make a difference. I wonder what actually happened to it. It looks like a missile attack. If you were going to chop it, surely you would cut it lower?

    What a shame! What is it with people and their hatred of Cocos palms? They’re not all bad!

    They need to be positioned properly and away from buildings ideally.

  6. I think it’s that they use a lot of water, give no shade, look ugly, and every flamin garden has one.
