Very pretty! I heard these get quite large for a Calyptrocalyx?

Philippe,

'Calyptrocalyx is a great genus, and one of my favorites (can't have too many! :rolleyes: ) and I have a bunch of the C. albertisianus in the ground. Always just as exciting to see a new red frond open up! And yours is spectacular! :)

Stunning! And to think I went decades of my life never even knowing some palms had red leaves!

Thanks for the photos!

That colour seems to have lasted about 3 weeks, would that be correct? 

And which Calyptro's would keep that vivid red the longest?

Cheers Steve

It is not dead, it is just senescence.
