Urban Rainforest 157 Report post Posted November 6, 2006 I posted something recently about some mystery Dypsis (I know, thats all we need is another mystery Dypsis) seedlings that I recieved from Floribunda as Dypsis Onilahensis. These are completely differant from any Dypsis seedling I have ever grown and are amazingly beautifull! They have a purple to burgandy petioleon yhe newest frond that stays that way for months. The new spear has the same color with vertical lime green stripes. They have stiff droopy leaflets a heel and are reasonably fast growing. Anybody wanna guess?

Alot of us still refer to this palm under this name because we still don't know what it really is. So, like others, We will have to wait until the new book comes out.
