Got a PKG of a. Alexandrae seed a year or so ago.  5 of them have done quite well, by my own standards at least.  One of them, however, has been putting up increasingly redder new leaves.  I've read that this is common while young, especially in cooler spring time, but it's just interesting that one plant would turn out so differently when they have all had identical conditions.

Yes, well that is nice and unusual.

Cheers Steve

It is not dead, it is just senescence.

Thanks!  I've been reading everyone's comments and questions for years now and I finally have something to contribute!

Very nice! I have one Archontophoenix that does the same, but I think it is growing out of that stage now as the latest frond had hardly any coloration.

Thanks! How old is yours?  How much longer do I get to enjoy this new red leaf phase?
