Goodaye’ Colin!

I concur with @Darold Petty about seeing you again!

The Pritchardtia looks like it could be any of a number of species, including schautteri.

Given that there are Pritchardia species that I have never laid eyes on, I would guess schattaueri. Here are a couple of smaller ones:

Here is a mature one in Koko Crater Park on Oahu:

Hi Daryl and Dave, 

 

Long time no see, was going to visit last September but Corvid stopped that, 

 

 

luckily got our airfares and accommodation costs back

Been busy helping botanic gardens, added a few more last year, 

Taken on many other projects as well,  

Will post more often now the palms are more established in the gardens.

The palm is of one of 3 species,  Pritchardia schattaueri was not one on the list but will keep an open mind.

keep safe and well

regards

Colin

Hi Colin,

I’m seeing fronds not very deeply divided but still slightly drooping at the tips, not folded strongly, rounded hastula, fibre covering margins of petioles, undersides of fronds at the base on the folds and maybe some scattered lepidia on the undersides although it is hard to tell for sure. I’m also guessing the growth habit and drooping leaf tips might be a result of being in fairly deep shade by the look of it?

I think we could rule out most if my observations are right but until it flowers I’m not sure a positive ID could be made. If not P schattaueri, I’m guessing it’s one of P forbesiana, gordonii, lanigera, lowreyana, munroi or woodii.

I wouldn't be able to ID a Pritchardia if my life depended on it. I will only add that one of the more common Pritchardia species seen in California is Pritchardia hillbrandii, so there is a chance you have one, seeing as it came from California. I know, not very helpful!
