anyone got any nice pics to share of normal humilis and vulcano in their habitat in spain,italy, etc

Here are some nice ones of Chamaerops humilis regular in habitat

I've never seen any of wild "vulcanos" They are reported to have come from the island of Vulcano but I've never seen a habitat photo. It is possible that all the vulcanos today came from the seed of one unique plant so don't expect to see a whole mass of them if a habitat photo does exist.

    I doubt that vulcano in the form it is known in the market does realy exist in the wild. Most probably it is a result of selective propagation from initially dwarf specimens. That's why offsprings from vulcano seeds are so variable.

    I'm heading to Italy today. I'll see what I can find.

    I'm in Positano. Any ideas where I can hunt some down. Didn't see any on the hills coming in.

    Chamaerops are mostly growing on slopes (1st pic) which can be also very very steep (2nd pic):
