I haven't had a good peep at this plant for some time. Underneath the main plant a child is performing it's own palm-a-wonder statements, don't you think ?

Let's see your dasyanthas folks.....

Here's mine, the mother and child reunion is only a moment away...

I do some experiments and learning in my garden with palms so you don't have to experience the pain! Look at my old threads to find various observations and tips!

Here's my Licuala dasyanthas (formerly L. radula) in the garden, which I got from Floribunda as a very small plant quite a few years ago and thought you might like to see it.

Hawaii Island (Big Island), leeward coast, 19 degrees N. latitude, south Kona mauka at approx. 380m (1,250 ft.) and about 1.6 km (1-mile) upslope from ocean.

 

No record of a hurricane passing over this island (yet!).  

Summer maximum rainfall - variable averaging 900-1150mm (35-45") - Perfect drainage on black volcanic rocky soil.  

Nice sunsets!
