Hi This for me an oddity, I guess most of you have already encountered. Nonetheless, for those who have never :

i agree looks like gigas , definately not mitis, wrong color.

Thx Girls and Boyz. In spite of being a terribly crowded metropolis with 19 million people jammed inside its borders, SP still has some nice nature refuges. I wish I had taken picures of the big Ibirapuera Park too, with the early landscape design by Burle Marx and now the green heart of the city.

Hey Len, the teddy x tri I got from you a year and a half ago is one of my favorite palms, thanx again! Lookin good

This is a real beauty, pretty slow grower, already flowering. so far transplanted very well!

Pretty sure 1 is Dypsis lutescens

Looking good Len!

Kris, sory to see the loss of your "Queen". I have about 10 I started from seed 2 years ago. I have never kept them in shade, but rather in direct sunlight. They have endured 2 summers now and are looking very healthy. I watered them heavily twice a week, fertilized in April, July, and October with Slow release brand. I also threw about 50g of Epsons Salt (Magnesium Sulphate) into the top soil and mixed it in. The medium I used was regular potting mix. I think it may keep the soil somewhat more moist than your river sand. They grow well here. I've seen some growing in redish clay near one of our golf courses. I plan to plant them in spring next year.

No, I think it will stay a single. My other one suckered like yours.

Looks great Len-that white one is getting fat-any sign of suckering or splitting?

Here is my TedTri. This is one I got my friend in Fl 4 years ago as a 3 gallon. I planted it the spring I received it and it has grown very fast. It has adult leaves now and three rings of trunk.

Yours are growing great Peter. Love the color of the TedTri cross when wet. Here are mine. The 'White Tri' is one the fastest Dypsis I have. The burn was from the 105 we hit this fall. All the leaves from this year were fine.

Hi, I know this palm you call white triangle. Do you know it is a cross between Dypsis Decary and Dypsis lutescens ? In which case the shoot at the base and a mix color decary and lutescens. Regards. Hery
