This small Dypsis albofarinosa seems to be flowering. What do you all think?

Yes to the question.  Nicely grown Chris!  This is a Dypsis I'm not growing but after seeing seeing yours and the well grown ones in Greg Hamman's garden on the last So Cal Palm Society meeting, I would like to plug into my garden.

Sure is. But it's got some ringed trunk, so it's got to have a few years on it.

Yeah, they grow up so quickly these days don't they.

They are worse than the kids.

It is not dead, it is just senescence.

Thank you! I'm hoping this one starts looking less yellow but it's stood up to cold and heat well. This one spent too much time in a pot so it's a little dwarfed.

Yeah I've had this for at least 3 years. Been in the ground for almost 2 years. Doubt I will see any seed but very interesting to see. Technically my first dypsis flower. :D

They sure do. My kids seem to be growing fast too!

Unusual to see a single one of these.

This one did try to split once about a year ago but it rotted. Maybe it will stay single.

That's pretty meek compared to mine. Nothing about it looks anything like what I am growing...

I actually find this species is quite often single at least from the seed batch the following plants came from (see first few pics). I've also attached a photo of what remains of the first flowering on one of mine. I wish you more luck than I had. Oh well there is always this year. I'd agree that your plant doesn't look like any of mine but I'm not sure how variable this species is.

Here is my beast. It's reached max size, a while ago cuz it has slowed down to let the other canes catch up and now its a seed machine.

The black trunks are my favorite.
