It was an overcast day, so the pictures aren't the best

I'm afraid.

Scott,

It was nice to meet you.

That reclinata was amazing. I've never seen one that had so many trunks running and curling along the ground. Some of those trunks were 45 feet long. You can plainly see it in your photos.

You didn't happen to get a shot of the silver leafed Jubaea chilensis, did you?

Ashton - It was great to meet you too. The Jubaea chilensis is the trunk that Bill is hugging. That's the most of it that I have. It was a beauty though. And you're right about that Reclinata. Wasn't that amazing to see?

I do some experiments and learning in my garden with palms so you don't have to experience the pain! Look at my old threads to find various observations and tips!
