Seed had been obtained as elata but resulted seedling shows a deeply purple color on the first produced node. Never heard of an elata showing such color. Is this trait connected with certain horticultural conditions (and which?) or with some other roystonea sp actually?

If you check Palmpedia, there are lots of pictures of regias with purple crownshaft and young oleraceas with red-purple colors.

My regia and my oleracea are fully green but may be you are lucky and you have a colored elata(regia)

I have noticed that the oleracea have that red/ purple stem. I've never seen it on any of the others.

Very nice, Konstantin! Hope you plant it in a glorious place and everyone gawks.

I've got a flock of baby R. borenquenia, and checking for comparison for ID.

I have germinated 1000's of R. Regia and I don't recall seeing any  purple. Lots of my oleraceas have shown this trait when seedlings.

Hope this helps?
