Fine Edge is an unknown quantity at this point
From my experience , I have always been told and have seen palms that were planted well above existing grade ( 4" - 5" ). If you planted yours deeper than the pot in which it came, I might advise you to raise them up a bit.They also seem to do better around here if the soil has a sand mixture in it.
I really don't plant palm trees because of their cost and the forwarding cost to the customer that I would have to charge to recoup some of my $$$ if I have to replace them.
