Garden Lot Palms in December

I was taking photos for an update on Hurricane Irma damage when I found myself photographing some of our palms that hadn't figured significantly in the storm, except for the important fact that they survived to face winter. So I decided to devote a separate topic to these palms, some of which are not common garden residents.

Allagoptera arenaria - finally had some volunteer seedlings come up

Tahina spectabilis - This was given to me by a former PTer who grew it from seed but didn't have room to plant it. It's a real treasure because I couldn't afford to purchase one. I'll never live to see it flower but I hope it isn't bulldozed to shreds in the future.

PalmatierMeg, it's nice that you are showing these palms. All super great palms and that chamerops humilis volcano is something special. The structure is perfect!

Allagoptera arenaria has produced seeds before but none were ever viable so I stopped harvesting them. A. campestris & brevicalyx have never flowered.
