The photos posted here are always amazing! Thanks to all.

Here are two of my Verschaffeltias showing color.

This species is lovely from the stilt roots to the black spines to the beautiful leaves.

Beautiful photos Cindy. Love these palms, especially when they are on the smallish size. In a few years they will be up, up, and away.

What could be more spectacular than this hookeri?  A bigger one I suppose. 
Chambeyronia macrocarpa v. hookeri, Areca vestiaria, acreca macrocalyx and a “magnifica” bromeliad in bloom ( snuck that one in ;-).

How lovely to have that C. hookeri at eye level! 

I caught a trifecta of new red fronds this morning, and it took many attempts to get them in the camera frame. Actually had to pry the screen off the window and take the photo from inside the house because the floor is high off the ground. You'd think with a group of 14 C. macrocarpa, half of them hookeri, multiple red fronds would be a common event. No! It' not! :lol: 

Aloha Friday!

Decaryi is my prettiest in the collection.  3 or 4 years from our trip to Costa Rica. Might it be a hybrid (seed found at the base of a tree where we were waiting for pizza)?

Cyrtostachys renda growing nicely.  Think it was a 3 gallon from HD back in Nov of 2019.  It gets watered everytime someone takes a shower or does laundry.  It's in full shade under a 50 or more year old Kukui Nut tree.  Second and third pictures taken this morning.

Number 3 for the year.  The way this is growing gonna have to remove the sun shade sometime next year.  It's been in the ground about 8 or 9 months from 1 gal from FB.

Doesn’t look like a Decaryi infant at all. Looks much more interesting. It reminds me of my Dypsis Heteromorpha. Whatever it is….it’s sweet looking.

Hi,

enjoying my two B. nobilis while still chest-high....

bn01.thumb.jpg.4b17cfef9f621b57d4fe5fc174c66a15.jpg

This is the first one...

...

bn03.thumb.jpg.161831d1be6ab5aa031da2d9771c7616.jpg

...and second one. I am really excited to see getting these ones big.

This one is still very tiny...

L. loddigesii - zooming in...

Finally - no palms but always my weak spot when checking the garden - ...

I seem to remember people saying you could gather moss, put it in a blender with some buttermilk, then spray the slurry around on rocks and stuff and it will spread and grow from the spores, as long as it’s moist.   Fire up your Vitamix!   I dig the loddigesii, have to get me some too.

You got it spot on! Great Id-ing! 

Well, the Beccariophoenix got heavily attacked by a beetle but it has now a new growing point I wasn't aware about until a few weeks ago.

Check this one:

ba001.thumb.jpg.67dc4c877f24aa986890b5fc2c0730ee.jpg

(At that time) Looking down on the B. alfredii in a more - "Wow, what a really cool palm!" mood and then stopping while recognizing that something looks weird...

ba002.thumb.jpg.4ea611b4207875fa87a027b4f924984e.jpg

Pushing the leaves aside and finding this one...

ba003.thumb.jpg.ce45b855e86c79455134b4ab7dd2db45.jpg

A new growing point that pushes out new leaves with force - that photo is two or more months old - the new leaves are moving AWAY from the Bismarckia ,

so we have a decent chance that those two budies might play along.
