peachy 291 Report post Posted October 14, 2011 Wimps....so far nobody has even take a guess at what mine is. How many palms from a very big genus have all those colours in the trunk ? Be brave take a chance, if you are wrong I won't gloat. (well maybe just a bit) Peachy Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sarasota alex 224 Report post Posted October 14, 2011 Peachy, I have a Veitchia filifera (formerly V. sessilifolia) that has a light brown trunk, but I would imagine that a V. filifera of your size would have a wider trunk. So my guess would be - Ptychosperma sp. Please take it easy on me Peachy if I'm wrong Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We actually just picked them up a couple weeks ago so I don't know for sure, but my understanding is that they were grown in those pots. Jody Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
