I can see why they spent it all on rhapis palms, at that price! 🤣

There is no Lira anymore... lol

I thought billbergia, I got it some 30 years ago at Alumy markets near Grafton, I do remember that day in fact! See iam getting older!

Billbergia nutans I presume! Super easy and tough, even down here in the Ice Chest.

At that size it could be many things. Was the seed still in the pot when you acquired the seedling? That might assist in identifying it. I too would guess it is likely from the Encephalartos genus but I have been surprised that some young Dioons and Macrozamia can appear similar in photographs at this size. Did the party you acquired it from provide any clues or identification?

Yes.

An easy one to grow.

I know you like a challenge, you’ve been to Manitoba haven’t you!

Is this Lanonia yunnanensis the same species as this sold by RPS?

Fair point, I was surprised with how much rain we got in April here on the coast.

Love the little grow room construction, fan and all!

Little Geonoma atrovirens a nice bit of colour!

Not 100% sure, but it is/was right in that area.

Good luck, get a vision of what you’re after and in time it becomes clear. That’s what I did some odd 30 years ago!

A good portion of the state west of I-75 is dry as a bone. Glad it is raining over there, and it definitely showed on radar today. We got skipped.

Cmon Tim where all like you🤣

You would be in luck if I was in the neighbourhood!

Iguanura Wallichiana

Dypsis rivularis new leaf looking pretty good!

Whatever it’s in, either way I don’t think anyone is running around to dig it out real fast!

The zonepushing corner today...I think things grow faster when you're not there! Everything has just grown itself in the past few months apart from the handful of days of winter protection. Hope the rain keeps getting delivered...no watering needed at all in 2026 so far. Liccuala fordiana is really looking like a Licuala Direct seeded alex getting big Lytocaryum hoehnei leaves are nearly doubling in size!

Another variety in the collection Taizannishiki. Give it ten years and it should be an interesting conversation point!

What are y'all talking about, we've had plenty of rain in southern Brevard, pretty soon, people will be complaining about too much rain.

I had no idea they are still rare in cultivation, my seed supplier said he had a few, so I thought ok that’s one palm I don’t have in my collection I will get a few seeds. If I had known they were rare I would’ve got 200 seeds.

Itaya today, with Pinanga looking smart…
