When it finally stops raining I plan to plant these two Dypsis pembana left and right front of the Dypsis red triangle hybrid with a Clinostigma sp. over on the far right. All in a soggy area.

Bit of catching up to do with next doors lutescens and other various palms. Should be interesting.

Nice Ari. I know your last one was known as "pink pinnatifrons", but was supposed to get a new name. Is it "gracilis"?

Zone 10a at best after 2007 AND 2013, on SW facing hill, 1 1/2 miles from coast in Oceanside, CA. 30-98 degrees, and 45-80deg. about 95% of the time.

Wal, I envy your position. A big yard, no need to fix the soil or fence first and lots of palms ready to go in the ground.

You are one lucky dude!!

You know what they say Bill, you make your own dude.. :blink:

Hi Ari, now you're getting some species happening, so great to see, and boy I'd love to see them first hand some day. What are they calling that Dypsis ?

You are welcome anytime... Wal. Not sure what the dypsis is... I don't think it is pink crownshaft though, since it doesn't have pink crownshaft. But it was so pretty hidden among Ptychosperma at the nursery... so I had to buy it!!

Anyway, here are a few more...

Too early to call on that one Paul (I've only been here 3 weeks). The weather records show that compared to my previous address, I'll get more rain (wonderful) yet on the other hand we'll have cooler temps (nasty), so a fine balance one could say.

Happy Gardening

Ari I believe the new name is Dypsis sambiriensis. Here is a link to a previous discussion

So Ari I'm a little confused, It has a red leaf, but no red or pink in the crown shaft?

I have the standard pinnatifrons and it has a green leaf, and I have the pink leaf version. (See the above link from Nick)

You have something different?

---------

Looking closer, unless it is stretched a lot, it may not be in the "pinnatifrons arena" at all. Looks cool. Something unnamed?

Geez Wal you sure don't muck around ,plenty of palms in already . By cooler temps how cool ,,,,, you might be able to grow a few different palms that would melt in Brisvegas.

I planted a group of 3 Corypha macropodas from the seeds Kris sent me at my place in the country. I spaced them far enough apart I hope that they will grow up nice. They are marked by the sticks. Only two of the three show up.

Here it is not spring planting as there really is no spring. But, it is mid rainy season which is a good time to get things in the ground and get established by the time dry season comes in June.

I planted a bacabinha, Oenocarpus maipora.

A small group of foxtails went in the size of this one.

And, I added some more Euterpe precatorias to the entry way group. I think I have about 14 in this group now. They will look impressive when they get big.

Nick, This is the palm I am most excited about planting this year - Johannesteijsmannia perakensis. It's a trunking Joey that is also known as "Joey on a stick". I started them from seeds that were ordered from RPS in 2007. I should be able to plant it sometime in April or May when the rainy season starts again.

Your Dypsis cabadae X decaryi is going to be a killer palm!

Jeff i have a palm that looks exactly like yours and i put it on the forum about a week ago and no one seems to know for sure what it is.

Went to Almeria, Spain (1300 km away), just to see with my own eyes that wonderful and BIG nursery, Medipalm, and to bring with me, back to cooler north Portugal, some few species!

At the end, brought two dypsis decipiens (I had already one, ready to put on the ground, but these two asked to come with me), one chambeyronia macrocarpa, one butia eriospatha and one parajubaea toralyi!

In some few days they will all be on the ground!
