I love this plant! You've grown it so nicely. I can't get enough of your pic updates of it. When I meet it, I might just give it a big ol' smooch!

Pinanga philippinensis is slow for me, but then again, this palm doesn't seem to get very big, ultimately.

The purple color on this palm is usually absent, but with so many stems, you can usually find some.

Calamus caryotoides always seems to get tangled inside this palm so admiring it takes a great deal of caution...

Beautiful! Do your Pinanga have any cover from the sun? I'm going to put a coronata in the ground come spring. Just not sure where I'll need to locate it. Missing a lot of my nice cover no thanks to Irma.

Surprisingly, my Pinanga specimens (currently all in pots) have been steadily growing through the winter.

Yes, it is in bright shade and it also gets water everyday. Plant your coronata in shade and where it will not dry out.

Hey Andrew.  How does this palm do for you?  Any specific requirements?  Getting one.  Just want to be sure it gets a proper location and it's tolerance for alkaline soils here in Cape Coral.  Some morning sun ??

Shade and water everyday. Mine has better soil than the usual south florida rock. No real issues with it, having said that, it is not an easy palm-I am just lucky.

May have to keep her potted.  Not rocky soils here.  Just sandy and calcareous.

This was one of the many topics I missed when I had no electricity (or internet) post hurricane Irma. I too love Pinangas so was happy for an excuse to photograph most of mine.

I have only a few in the ground as I am still awaiting time, shade regrowth, plant recovery and seedling maturation.

Please don't be shy if you think my labels are wrong. Now I can blame it on Maria although white wax pencils on pots have helped.

First a couple of seedlings of Pinanga caesia. I have about 10, many thanks to Mike Dahme for the gift of fresh seeds when I visited his amazing PR collection prior to Maria.

Pinga sp. 'Thai mottled'

DSCN8765.thumb.jpg.91d7f39ec85d0bd67d556

Perhaps this is my transplanted P. sp.' Thai mottled' below.

I even interrupted posting to return to this palm to search for my metal label. This involves negotiating a steep slope and pulling the weeds in the photo from neglect since before the Biennial.

No luck but I likely have old photos even on PalmTalk to clarify.

I am happy that the largest stem has regrown enough from spear pull to be almost seamless.

Here is P. watanaiana and close up of same.

More Pinangas in my post hurricane 12 feet  x 20 feet $99 emergency shade house (car cover with shade cloth substituted for the included tarp). 

Pinanga kanchanaburiensis

Pinanga sp. 'Yellow'DSCN8776.thumb.jpg.ed9079f381135d507c994

Pinanga aristata

 I had two seedlings but came back from Colombia to find one chewed off at soil level. I saw these in Borneo and certainly hope this little one survives, as in the wild it is quite lovely.

Two of my six Pinanga maculata seedlings

I have managed to stop counting the number of this species that have died in my care. So far so good with my newest batch. Yes, I am very persistent.

One of a few sunburnt P. disticha seedlings which is another favorite. Moved to more shade, they are recovering.

And last for today, another lost label transplanted Pinanga which I think is P. disticha.

In this case the spear pull regrowth is at an angle, but as the close up shows the clustering progeny are pretty.

The J. altifrons in the background is down a hill, so not really so close as it appears in the photo.

Sorry again for the weeds.
