Lady or Not

This Foxy Lady was producing what looked like typical Foxy Lady fronds then all of a sudden this, is this palm reverting back to normal Fox without the Lady? any comments greatly appreciated Thanks in advance.

I got taken on 3 "foxy" foxtails... only time will tell.

Time will tell! I seen a few that came from the same seed batch that turned out to be just a fox tail. Hard to tell when its so small.

That's strange. I would have guessed Foxylady by those previous leaves, but I can see a total Foxtail now. Hmmmmmm.

If it is a hybrid I can tell you this..each one is unique.

I've got a new frond emerging now so in a couple of weeks i'll know, right now there are 2 foxylady fronds and 1 foxtail on this palm.

I got sold a faux Foxy Lady at a Palm Beach sale several years ago. Won't let that happen again. I dug up the fake and gave it to a neighbor.

I'd like to be under the sea in an octopus' garden in the shade.

This just happened on a vairegated foxy lady for me too, new leaf wasn't as "tailish" as yours, but wasn't 100% lady like!

I think the key to remember with these hybrids is that they are hyrbids and therefore share traits of both parents. And just like we see variation in non-hybrid palms and changing over the years on them (colors coming or going as they mature, etc...) these can also change as they grow. The ideal Foxy Lady that most people seem to want is the perfect splitting of the parent palms (just like a Teddy x Triangle) but that doesn't always happen. I have 5 of these and only my largest is really showing that nice hybrid look. The other 4 are too small to tell still. So I just have to wait. Best bet is to buy big (even though it's pricey) so you know exactly what you are getting.
