mythical bird that tries to fly into the sun. However, the Chinese Phoenix has his feet stuck to the ground so never quite gets off. He represents the Lungs and the lower lumber vertebra. His element is Wind/AIR. His attacking method is ‘windmill palm’. The family member of the Phoenix is the ‘Eldest Daughter’. The phoenix uses whatever it has to defend itself. It will use its wings/hands, beak and feet. It will use locks and holds while the feet or beak attack. So we see with this animal, …

How Long Does A Phoenix Canariensis Palm Take To Grow?
October 25th, 2009 Jeff That’s the Canary Island Date Palm. I keep seeing those here in New Zealand in front of houses, and would love to have one myself.
They look especially great when their stem is still short, and they just seem to be these almost fern-like things with a pineapple type base.
I wonder how long it would take for one to grow to that size if I seed it now.
Does anyone know?
Why Are There No Phoenix Canariensis (canary Island Date Palm) In The Crimea?
October 23rd, 2009 Jeff The Phoenix Canariensis (Canary Island Date Palm) is very widely cultivated along the shores of the south eastern Black Sea coast, particularly in Sochi (Russia), Abkhazia and in Adjara (Georgia). In Gagra and Sukhumi in Abkhazia, they’ve been planted in nearly every street corner and absolutely thrive, many having grown to enormous heights.
However, I visited the Crimea in Ukraine’s Black Sea coast last year and didn’t see any of them there. I found this odd, as the native flora/fauna is very Mediterranean-like and the average annual temperature is certainly mild enough for them to grow, with much warmer summers than the south of England where a few of them have been successfully cultivated (Tresco, Devon, even in London). So why have none of them been cultivated in the Crimea? Does anybody know why?
