Hi Philippe, 1st pic Dictyocaryum, 2nd Allogoptera caudesens, 3rd Astrocaryum ferruguinenium and yes 1 of our small kerriodoxas then a small Clino.

Ok, your obviously back home in Switzerland since you are posting and no doubt cold there, impossible to be cold in Sri lanka.

Pete :)

Pete,

I am posting from Kandalama Hotel in Sri Lanka (you can check some older pics I posted last year) it's really cool (if not cold).
Gladly I am not in Switzerland yet, still 10 days here: Day after tomorrow in Kandy (Peradeniya gardens...)

Your small Clino is already nice!

Aloha Philippe, I am following this great post with all of the wonderful pictures people contributed. I also need help with something:

We have Arenga tremula, caudata, and several variations of hookeriana; all of which are supposed to be glaucus on the underside of their leaves, but none of them are!

I hope someone can explain this for me.

Thanks in advance, Lee

PS: Mike and I just started a White post. I hope Dr. George or Al in Kona post there J. magnifica.
