Small Dypsis with reddish color

[Darold Petty]

 I acquired this palm from the Flora Grubb nursery here in San Francisco.  They told me it came from Kevin Weaver.  Kevin told me that it was Dypsis onilahensis x baronii, and that it had originated in the garden of the late Louis Hooper.

  Anyone else who can contribute additional information?  Thanks

No additional information but what great color on this hybrid.

I got nothing either. Looks like dypsis black stem. The only thing wrong with it is that its not in my garden...

I was thinking that too. It looks like it got the best traits from a few dypsis. My psamo has or had ( havent looked at it in a while) a trunk like that but the crown wasnt nearly as colorful.

It looks like what I would expect a D baronii x onilahensis to look like (without having seen or even heard of one before). Very cool!

She’s a beauty. Always interesting to see a clustering palm as a single stem.

Seems pretty similar to my mystery palm that I bought from JM as a potential D. onilahensis x baronii hybrid. Mine is clumping and much smaller. I posted about this guy seeking a potential ID. When I bought it, I didn’t get a strong sense that they truly knew the parentage.

Wow, very colourful trucks.
