I just wanted to remind people about my ongoing Palm Blog. I update it every day or two and have sales/specials there. Here's the link: http://www.junglemusic.net/New%20Plant%20Arrivals/new_plant_arrivals.html Phil Jungle Music Palms and Cycads 619 291 4605

Dypsis ovobontsira is described as a slender palm with a trunk diam circa 13cm (5+") which this is clearly not!! :blink:

I want to know what he is going to do with his RANCH HANDS,once the CONTAINER RANCH is gone, and PLANTED in the ground?

Sun grown Howea belmoreana.....hey BS need some Mulch? :rolleyes:

Bo, I think that might be a reference to the MANURE getting pretty DEEP! :laugh: Seriously I have read all these Dypsis threads ,and with variation in different palms other than dypsis,(take the common queen palm as an example,litoralis, silver queen,santa catarina,not to mention variation in ones that are supposed from the same region.),palms can be very VARIBBLE within the same species. I mention some of those names ,as it seems some of these names either are from the seed seller,or grower, to be a marketing technique to promote sales! So to conclusivly settle these questions before they mature and set seed seems like a tall task for the palm botanist,little lone collectors, growers,buyers of these palms. Even then there still might be questions as to whether or not the are the same species or different? Not that trying to figure it it out isn't FUN,but it is way over MY head! One last thought I have seen, and germinated 3 different kinds of queen palm seeds,all three are very different in size and shape,yet they are the same species!!
