This is a Livistona saribus I grew from seeds that Mr.Ed Brown sent me years ago. This green petiole form is cold hardier then L. chinensis. It is a pretty palm and i like the spiny petioles. It is only not a place to fall in after a parachute jump ! :)

A sabiá (Turdus rufiventris, kind of trush) made its nest on the fan last summer.

Alberto, did you put in the ground when seedling at full sun?
