Jubeas are massive palms that have some of the most attractive leaves of all palms.  They take a long time to grow big so they sell the juveniles in small pots:   Jubaea_chilensis_02_web.jpg

LOVE this palm!!  A Jubaea pic is always a good way to start the day

 

By the way,how is yours doing in the hot Arizona desert? Mine in pots are still moving right along in full sun. Much tougher palm than people realize. Seems to take both the cold AND the heat.

I thought this might be a hybrid since leaf tips turn down slightly at the ends.  But the Jubaea dominant butia hybrid is a beautiful palm!  I have BxJ and (BxJ)xJ and yours just has more of the jubaea look.  Unfortunately JxB struggle more here, too wet I think.

@aztropic  Went into the ground this last May and has been growing like a champ.  Hard to express how happy this palm makes me!!  Really seems like being seed grown makes the difference here.  Thank you so much for making something like this available here - Phoenix, AZ.  Apologizes to @SailorBold didn't mean to hijack the thread just to provide an update.

Looks happy and healthy! I've sold about 20 of these over the years,so maybe future Phoenicians will have a few to look at someday.

That's tough. I'd say Jubaea dominant.

My Butia yatay x Jubaea is also Jubaea dominant but has a different look. I'll snap a picture soon. Hybrids are awesome.

Dang @SailorBold your Jubutea is almost as nice as mine!

Maybe even just as nice!

Give it a few more years and it’ll go to seed.

@SailorBold beautiful palm, and phenomenal growth for 7 years in the ground from a 5 gallon!

I'd say Jubaea does appear a bit more dominant.  Do the leaf tips have the distinct Jubaea hook?  Was this a Patrick Schaefer hybrid?

I do see some hooking but not too prevalent...  This is a Wilcox offspring.

Thanks for the follow up!  I have a Dr.  Wilcox Jubutia F3 that will go in the ground in the spring.

Wow good example of a really diverse Palm Garden in a colder climate. I remember your Filiferas. Would you do a full garden tour showing most of the palms. You had Parajubaea and Butia as well correct?

I live a few blocks away. I was being sarcastic, but I am in awe of this palm and several of his other plantings!

I second the request of the full garden outlay! Truly amazing!

Doesn't quite do the trunk justice unless you say that planter is like 20"x 20",  or something to that effect. 

Let the truth out!

Both parents are apparent but definitely leaning more Jubaea which is a win. Thanks for the update I adore this palm !!

It's so much bigger than it looks in photos..  but yeah that inner diameter is 4'x4'.. not huge per se.. but I think it's gonna breakout of that eventually.. sooner than later at that..

I don’t know the depth of the concrete, but. It just might push that border out of the way. For Albuquerque, my home town, that palm is spectacular! Kudos Jimmy.

Why not take another shot with a 6' high female model to give it some scale, and a image we should all enjoy?

Jubaea like a wet season, but I think they also want a warm dry season just like their native habitat in Chile.

Jubaea I started from seed 40 years ago.  Possibly, Oregon's largest Jubaea.IMG_0234.thumb.JPG.5f3b0e608c97ca05e29a539265b35be1.JPG

Absolutely beautiful...when did yours exhibit a self cleaning trunk?  Mine is a hybrid.. but (as far as I know and understand) with Jubaea as the seed bearer. I'm not sure if that will determine if it has a self cleaning trunk or not..as compared to Butia crossed with Jubaea.  Mine in reality is prolly still working on the trunk to form..

That is a beautiful tree you have there!
