jurassic crown of "unlabeled" dypsis giant at Lyon Arbor., Oahu Hawaii

There are some of the coolest "jurassic" dypsis out there at Lyon, huge. I was

only guessing on what they were. Felt like I was in natural habitat. My guess on

a few, Dypsis Pembana , Dypsis sp. White, Dypsis tokoravina. Dypsis madagascariensis solitary,

Beccariohoenix windows and non, in many ages of development. I will take pics of the Dypsis

next time
