Kris- "Paul" got the "explanation" right. It is not quite a baby strap leaved palm and certainly not a mature adult with typical looking foliage. Sorry Paul, it was too easy. Hahahaha.  :D

A triple Butia? Is planting triples of thick-trunked palms going to have good results? Fat palms tend to be slow already, and it's hard to imagine how many years it would take to get graceful curved trunks on a Butia.

Zone 9b/10a, Sunset Zone 22

7 miles inland. Elevation 120ft (37m)

Average annual low temp: 30F (-1C)

Average annual rainfall: 8" (20cm)

Did you buy any other Butia species? I just said capitata because its the most widely available species, but there are others and most likely all of the ones in the US are probably hybrids with eriospatha and yatay and some other species.

Some Butia seeds are polyembryonic , that is they have more than one seed inside . I collected seeds from the B.capitata at Maryborough Botanic Gardens in Queensland , and had a few multiple sprouts from one fruit .

Michael in palm paradise,

Tully, wet tropics in Australia, over 4 meters of rain every year.

Home of the Golden Gumboot, its over 8m high , our record annual rainfall.

No...

If I lived in Hollywood Fla., I'd dig up those Butias and plant something else.  Butias aren't that happy living that far south in Fla. and there are so many beautiful, faster growing tropicals that will grow there. A friend of mine lived in Hollywood and he had one of the most exotic palm gardens in S. Fla. My preference, but Butias look better as a "stand alone" palm.

Cant say that i disagree...but i have assembled a fairly extensive collection....i have the space...and felt i should not ignore the entire family of Butia.(tho the manager of my collection agrees with you)

I have only been planting here for 7years and would love to see your friends garden
