ariscott 48 Report post Posted April 6, 2008 (Jeff in Costa Rica @ Apr. 04 2008,23:39)QUOTE (bgl @ Apr. 04 2008,22:23)QUOTEJeff, Great looking palms! And I hope you have a plan for those Pigafettas because they're going to need larger pots very soon OR go in the ground. ??? And once they get up to a large 5G size or so you do NOT want to handle them! Plus the roots are kind of tender. Bo-Göran Bo-Göran, thanks for the heads up! I actually have been planning for the Pigafettas. Everytime I walk around the property I make mental notes as to where they will be planted, I'm just waiting for the rainy season to kick in. I have already potted them up 3 times so I am ready to get them in the ground before they get too big to handle. I love how fast these palms are! Now if I could just get my hands on some P filaris seeds...... Don't forget welding gloves to plant them with... It helped with my Salacca Regards, Ari Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

www.dadluvsu.com 245 Report post Posted April 12, 2008 All beauties gentlemen! Bo, How old is the B. gracilis and the C. elegans pictured? Are you keeping them both in full shade? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bgl 3,142 Report post Posted April 13, 2008 Bill, They are both in my shadehouse - 60% shadecloth. B. gracilis germinated in summer 2005, so that plant is almost three years old. C. elegans, collected the seeds in April 2006 and by late Oct 2006 I actually put this one (and its siblings) into individual 1G pots. They could easily have gone into a smaller pot at that time but I've skipped the stage with 4 inch pots and go straight for 1G (or larger) pots.

Kumar 150 Report post Posted September 8, 2010 Here is one of the very few I have grown from seed. I have three like it and I found the seeds fallen from a nest in my mango trees. Age is 7 months since germination, 10-11 since planting. The seeds were small black flattened ovoids, about 2.5 cm long. The leaves are very glossy and very upright and they've taken a lot of damage when another pot was placed on this accidentally for 3 days with no ill effect. . I don't yet know what it is but I know what it is not - not borassus, phoenix, or areca.Any suggestions for ID would be very welcome. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
doranakandawatta 2,820 Report post Posted May 12, 2013 I know it's an old thread but google-ing about Euterpe seedlings, I found this Palmtalk thread starting 7 years ago, and I enjoyed these 8 pages! It's lovely to see all these promising babies and it gives so many information (how does a seedling of XXX species look, how does it grow....?) Many thanks to Palmtalk friends for showing these pics. Some of my pics: Areca novo-hibernica Can this be Carpentaria? Rhopaloblaste: What is this? Mauritiella armata: Latania loddigesii or lontaroides? AGAIN, Thank you Palmtalk, you build an extraordinary source of Information and happiness ! Regards Philippe Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
