Remembering the photos of lovely Areca macrocalyx in some hawaiian gardens, we are looking forward to seeing this reddish color ... or not?

    Seedlings from Floribundapalms, not seeds.

    Don't you have good nurseries in Australia?
    From what I see on Palmtalk, many good collections are there.
