Here is an updated picture. It is still growing very well and has been flowering for the past 3 or 4 years. Unfortunately, it is a male and I can't find anyone with a girlfriend! I seem to have a knack for picking up rare plants that are males?? In the background are three coning Microcycas - all male!!

I've seen that too, but I don't think Palmpedia is correct with regards to hermaphroditic. I know one other person with one of these and it is also a male.

Livistona seems to be a sexually fluid genus.
