SAVANNAH GA June 22 Two pygmy date palms once separated by theft and near death now prosper and have produced three date pods. Owner J A Cessaroni said the female palm was stolen in July 1948 and the male wilted until the trees, kept close, exchanged pollen with help from the wind. The recovered trees slowly revived and now bear fruit after years of hardship.
