I do some experiments and learning in my garden with palms so you don't have to experience the pain! Look at my old threads to find various observations and tips!

Steve,

That's definitely a great looking Dypsis and I am certain that what you have is the Dypsis sp. bejouf (or bejoufa or bejofa - take your pick). I have grown lots of these, some of them from seed. I would never refer to it as "fast growing" but it is indeed much faster than the true Dypsis bejofo. Below is part of a group of 24 Dypsis sp. bejoufa in my old garden here in Leilani Estates, Big Island of Hawaii. Photo taken this afternoon. These were planted in July 2001 from 5G pots (about 2-2.5 ft tall).

Wow, he/she is a beauty.  It's a real Beefy Dypsis, this D sp. "Bejofo".  Good thing you planted it with some space to grow, great foresight Steve.
