Trachycarpus 'Manipur'

Well, I guess the white colour can depend on a lot of factors. None of my princeps are pure white, rather greyish-white. But my Mount Victoria doesn't even have a hint of white. Backsides:

My Trachy Mt.Victoria is developing what might be termed 'glaucous' undersides to its leaves and not as striking as the pic shows. I have to reluctantly spray it with a systemic fungicide every month or so. The pics show the dreaded, very quickly spreading, brown mottling on its older leaves.

My Trachy ukhrulensis (Manipur) has been experienced three winters planted out and has suffered no noticeable cold weather damage. This said, the lowest temp recorded here in that time was just in the region of 25°F. This palm hasn't suffered with fungal infection as has my Mt.Victoria. It's leaf undersides are almost white, something which the camera has not picked up on really. In real life, they are much paler than in T.Mt.Vic. As for the uppersides, these are a different shade of green, with a bluish tint to my eyes in Manipur.

(The first two pics are of Mt Victoria while the other three are of Manipur)

How are everyone's ukhrulensis doing? Mine has made a slow but steady recovery from its winter damage. It was an exceptional winter so I still think this palm is promising for my area.

The colour is fantastic, the photo doesn't do it justice. It almost rivals the princeps.

Can anyone tell me if they recognize this palm? It has similar fronds and slow growth to the ukhrulensis … could it be this?

I have 7 T. ukhrulensis planted out. I know one of this 3 planted in a "row" was a T. oreophilus.

This one hasn't the abundant fluffy tomentum like the others... ( conclusion: this must be the T. oreophillus...?) It's also fruiting now, one a more yellow/ orange inflorescence, while the other T. ukhrulensi's inflorescences are more yellow...(?) The two inflorescences were intermingled and I separate both and made another pictures20230527_102829.thumb.jpg.4ff1f15ea30352bbac51c490a11b0bd4.jpg

This palm that I suppose is the T. oreophillus has less tomentum and it is of a more coarse texture and a different brown collor (below in the picture) Can somebody confirm this??? Compare the two:

It's so cool to see these as adult plants grown outside of their habitat. 

Yes, it is!

@Abbii think it’s safe to say that’s not a Trachycarpus. What did you buy it as?

It was under the trees and undergrowth in my front garden! I live in the uk so I was shocked to see it Iv been here for 15 years and never noticed it! And it’s survived the harshest weathers! I have potted it now let me show u but it’s nothing like my regular chamearops humilis either I’m stumped on what it is!!!

Yes Alberto, above is ukhrulensis and below is oreophilus. Has the oreophilus flowered yet?

Yes, two are flowering. The collor of the inflorescences is more orange yellow

Is this the oreophilus Alberto? We will assumed it’s pollinated by one of the ukhrulensis or another flowering Trachycarpus in the garden?

This is ukhrulensis. I haven' t seen any male inflorescences on the other palms. Maybe they are hermaphrodite...(?). There was a male flowering Trachycarpus "Nova" 15 m apart, some time ago. Not sure if at the same time as the female T. oreophillus and ukhrulensis....

Correction: T. ukrulensis has yellow/orange and the supposed T.oreophillus a yellow/green inflorescences.

My male ukhrulensis is flowering right now, and the flower is very green, it does not shed pollen as readily as others in the genus, the princeps I collected pollen from the other day produces a huge amount. 
 

I suppose they could be hermaphrodite? I’ve never come across either of these (females) flowering. 
 

At what size is the trunk of the oreophilus when it flowered for the first time? Mine has around 2m of trunk. Yours look much taller.
