Kentiopsis magnifica and neighbouring Dypsis crinita providing redness to the physiognomy of this area of palmage.

Great thread.

A few of mine:

Snow White and the two dwarfs:

Gileno, what are the palms in these photos? Looks like a J. magnifica, but I am a mere "seedling".

And yours, as well, Tropico.

Great photos everyone. I LOVE this thread! I hope everyone adds more photos. Will add some of my own when it stops pouring.

Normanbya new leaf. Is the colouring normal or can I claim it to be a variegated variety ?

I didn't know they have red new growth.... Nice :). Mine is dying :(. Not sure why.... just steadily declining. I have repotted it to a more well drained mix and still no change... So, I guess whether it will make it or it won't :(.

Very colourful garden, Daryl... seemed to appreciate all the rain

215 is alive, nice Daz.

I saw this palm in person last Friday, it's getting bigger and bolder. Dear Bill and other interested parties, this is looking terrific, for clump of colour, it is unmatched.

Happy Gardening

Another one - very dark red - it is not the photos, that is the 'real' colour.

Ari- That chambeyronia looks great! How tall is the palm? How much trunk does it have already?

I also have a Ptychosperma Waitianum and it is finally showing some color on its new leaves

The jury is still out on wether this is a variegated licuala grandis ( the pattern looks a bit like nutrient deficiency but then again the white follows the segments on the leaves) but for the 2 or so years I've had it this patternhas been consistent on the leaves. Its actually a pretty robust grower and the variegated parts don't deteriorate early like in some variegated palms

Anyway it puts out a really good show-- the leaves almost look like they are glowing.

Gene, I think you can say that the variegated is there to stay by now... It is very unusual variegation though...

About the C. macrocarpa... I will have to check it out how much trunk it actually has. It is huge though, at least 3.5-4m now... in full sun because it outgrew the temporary shade I had for it...

With all of this rain we keep getting, just about every day is a 'new leaf day' lately. Although the temperatures are cooler than average,the rain makes up for it and none of the palms seem to mind!

Here's a few more from today...
