I could be wrong, but looks like a hybrid of sorts. Mule or?

Just curious - why do you have a Hawaiian zip code as your UserName?

That is a great looking mule.  Mine are looking like crap and I'm pretty sure I'm losing one.  I don't know what my problem is.

Hey,  that’s he zip code I'm living in.

Heck. That would make sense. Hawaii: beautifully green palm.  

Even the oldest leaves are dark green.

I use Flouibunda palms zip code because I love getting palms from Jeff and like trying to grow as many different palms as possible. That palm is in paradise valley az. I don’t think it is mule as it is much pretty than any of mine, I also have some of the coconut queen’s and it’s much pretty than them I’m stumped.

Mules are quite variable.  Not surprising it differs from yours.  Doesn't look like any of mine either but it does look like one that a member in SoCal has.  I'm guessing that it favors the Butia parent which might be 'strictor' variant with more upright leaves.

I don't get it. But then, I am old.  Why are people so resistant these days to signing off with a first name, it is not only the new young people either, but I have noticed that there are more people here now who feel comfortable enough to put their first name to their posts or in their signature. iI is so polite and courteous and friendly.

Come on 90210 , we know that you are are a nice guy, fess up or just make up a first name. 

Oh, I got a bit off topic, mmm probably a mule. 

 

 

Cheers Steve

It is not dead, it is just senescence.

I agree Steve.  I used to always sign off with my name "Jon" but I still got referred to as "Fusca" by 90% of responding folks so I stopped except when greeting new people.  I always wondered how to add a signature so your post inspired me to figure it out!

My mules are all sunburned my pindos are all sunburned and I think I’m losing a lot of my queens to the sun and these palms don’t look like the sun bothers them at all
