its a very common nursery shrub here. Actually im considering buying a
few for a windbreak in the back yard. There its hard for me to get out
and water the very back of the back yard all the time, and we also have
a Chain Link fence with no protection from the winds that blow in off
the bay. Since it can take being dry i think it would be a good choice. 
	I also have two seedling palms (syagrus and washingtonia) that are
FINALLY putting out new leaves! El nino really messed things up for my
plants.....everythings been slow to get growing. Im thinking of
planting several palm groves in my back yard too (not much money to do
anything with it, since its about 70X100 feet!). So im thinking a grove
of syagrus, and a grove of washingtonias as well.  I would plant them
kind of along the sides of the yard so we do actually have space for
the dogs to romp around.
Syagrus and washingtonias do quite well here and both hold up to the
wind (unlike the monterey pines which snap off in storms).
