Bump....still looking for this somewhat common palm.

Ray, PlantFinder lists only Redland as having it in stock, they show 17" as available, so that might be your answer. Otherwise you might call Jeff Searle (who has had them rarely in the past) or Elizabeth at d'Asign Source, or perhaps closer to your location you might query Faith Bishock to see if by chance she has one on hand. I think you must be overly hopeful in calling this species "somewhat common"! I love it as well but have found it nearly impossible to source here. That is a shame and a situation that should be corrected because it has so many wonderful qualities. I think it's just one of those terrible nursery-industry conundrums where nobody asks for it so nobody grows it, and since nobody grows it, nobody knows it and hence nobody asks or it...(on and on ad infinitum)...
