the palm in the middle where I am and my friend !

Livistona chinensis seems , could be a saribus?

Edited June 15, 201015 yr by gyuseppe

That there is a Colin Wilsoniana

I don't think you would be standing so close to a L.saribus. I recently bare rooted one of the horrible things to send to someone and bled profusely. They have very long, very sharp spines. Matty I also concur with the mature wilsoniana.

Peachy

haha, mature, seeding

I don't know either of those two (guys). As for the palm we need better shots. The petiole would help and one without the dewds may be better. If I had to say I would go with Peach.

I already knew that guy but I had never seen Giuseppe so far! Nice to see you together!

Is that a Colin on the way to the Canary Islands?

Carlo

Looks like a L.chinensis there Gyuseppe. I love your garden gnome!

Daryl

careful,they have been known to be invasive house guests.

Hey, Colin has escaped the southern winter. Lucky guy.

Any more pictures of your garden Gyuseppe?

Best regards

Tyrone

Gyuseppe, when I saw it I thought it was a Livistona chinensis too! I agree with Daryl. Does it have a hastula and short sharp teeth on the petiole? Peter

That there is a Colin Wilsoniana

MATT ! you have revealed too soon the name of the man of the Chamaedorea !

Matty I also concur with the mature wilsoniana

Is that a Colin on the way to the Canary Islands?

Carlo : colin said that surely come to you, and you know you in person

I love your garden gnome!

yes !!!

Any more pictures of your garden Gyuseppe?

I love your garden gnome!

Hey Giuseppe, you sure do speak good English for a man who dosn't speak English!

Great to see what you and your garden look like...and by the way, you had better check your silverware, I'm sure Colin took all my best spoons when he was here!

Cheers,

Jonathan

Hi Johnathon

had a wonderful visit with Giuseppe and his family, Guiseppe uses google translate to read Palmtalk and does not speak English. His son is leaning the English language at school so he tried to teach me Italian and i tried to teach him Australian err English.

We toured his palm garden and saw his seedlings area. He has a lot of space for more palms and he is looking forward to planting more. It was a very nice visit, when you enjoy talking about palms, language differences does not appear to be a problem.

Was on a friends boat and we ended up near Napoli. Took the opportunity to visit Guiseppe on the on the spur of the moment. Guiseppe's wife spoiled me with a excellent genuine Italian lunch, we all had a good time, there is always a way to communicate. Do not have a way to resize my pictures at the moment , will post some later

regards

Carlo

Regards, Ari

Hi Ari

We came to England for my son's wedding and my wife is travelling around with her mum, so hopefully i get to visit more palmtalk members over this way.

flights can be very cheap here

keep well

Colin

Nice, Colin.. Never did make it to Europe... the kids arrived before we made it there...

Regards, Ari

"Colin was very busy eating, he ate everything"

That is very funny!

Good to see some international travel, and I am sure heaps of palm information exchange.

Great stuff gyuseppe and Colin.

Regards

Stephen

you had better check your silverware, I'm sure Colin took all my best spoons when he was here!

Jonathan I do not think my wife would allow to Colin to take the silverware ,you know what women are ,jealous of the house and have everything under control

Jonathan I was very sad When You Told me that the seeds of Livistona mariae, which I sent to you,Were Destroyed by the Australian authorities,

As you know already, I have good news for you,I gave these seeds again to colin + Few other seeds species, That when Colin will arrive in Australia will send to you

Jonathan I also tell you that your seeds that you sent me of Macrozamia and Livistona some are in sprouting

I think the correct name of the palm is Ratpackeria wilsoniana var Colbabie

Great thread...........

Here is a picture of Guiseppe with his jungle of palms

Is that a private courtyard? For a second I thought those palms were growing indoors. I bet Giuseppe grows only the right species for his climate, and grows them all to perfection. Just a guess!

John the heat coming off Mt Vesuvius gives him a warm micro climate. Ari, dont distract Colin, he is buying me a villa on Capri for xmas.

it is hard to believe you can fly many places all over europe for less than 75 aud

the trick is to use your frequent flyer points to get here first, saved them for 12 years or so

HJ john

Giuseppe has plenty of land to plant palms, he will have his own palmetum nearly one day, his collection is growing rapidly

colin

Okay downgrade the villa on Capri to a shack on Stromboli..
