A couple of new palms I put into a new landscape project in Honolulu. The Tahina's leaf is about

4 ft across, got these via barge from Bill Austin, Big Island.

    Beautiful, that sambiranensis looks spectacular. Isn't it gonna get swallowed up by that tahina?

    Thanks Axel, they are farther apart than the picture shows, so they should be ok.

    Boy Colin, those look great. I hope they know these palms are really special. Have you been to Lyon lately?
