A Clinostigma samoense, still with its juvenile fronds. This palm is in deep shade - not an ideal location for a C. samoense. It was planted more than ten years ago.

Bo,

It would be impossible to pick my favorite place in your garden. But with a gun to my head, your Kerriodoxa grove would immediately come to mind. :)

Bo, Nothing better than the black & white (silver) photo of the Kerriodoxa. If it wasn't for the green leaf showing, you would think it was a negative. Garden is looking great as usual. Hope to see it in person.
