Thank you so much for the quick response. That was one of my guesses, but the lack of red leaf threw me off. Do you know whether all macrocarpas have the red leaf? I’m eager to see if this tree will sprout one.

Some produce only green... Most however will produce a new frond in some shade of pink to red to maroon.

When they do produce a red one it only stays red for a week or two.

Also called a flame thrower.  My new leaf only stays red for 3-4 days.

Here, this depends on time of year.  All of mine seem to like to open up around Christmas.  Given our highs in December and January are only around 60, they stay red much longer.  I had a red frond on my largest hookerii for over 2 months this year.  It's pretty sweet that they stay red that long!

Wow. My last one was only red for like 4 days.
