I’m hoping this is the year that they start pollinating themselves, or at the very least let the spindle palm 15 ft away or so do it!

Here it is today.  4' of clear trunk and you can see lump on the internodes that will eventually turn into the flowers.

A very nice So Cal Bottle! I note it is growing in some overhead shade. Mine is also growing under some overhead canopy and has a sight curve in the trunk as if it is looking for more light. I have a smaller Spindle just to the right. Hoping to get some hybrid seeds one day!

    Is this a bottle palm? There’s a good amount of these more tropical palm trees in north park sd but I’m not good at identifying palm trees

    I don’t think so, to me it looks like a mature Ravenea Rivularis.
