Flowering Archontophoenix alexandrae?

Featured Replies

Today I notice a strange outgrowth from his Archontophoenix alexandrae. Is he going to blossom? Growing in a container of 12 litres, the age of 5 years. How often this type blooms in containers?

Looks like a Chamaedorea radicalis to me,:indifferent: but could you post a pic of the whole palm?

I think so, too.

If so, it's got the usual early early puberty, right out of the womb (practically).

Sorry that Archontophoenix ( 
But it's even better on the street before winter to keep.

That's a fine Chamadorea radicalis! Looks like one of the less glaucous variants. Very nice!

If you want some A. tuckeri seed, send me a PM with your address and I'll mail you some, no charge. They. like alexandrae, get about 3 meters of trunk before flowering, though under the right conditions it happens quite fast.

Thank you very much, but I have to refuse. Since my region is impossible to supply from other countries (Ukraine does not recognize Crimea as Russian). And many years later the palm is too big for the room.

No problem.

That radicalis is very nice, it might even grow outside for you if it's not too cold. Crimea's relatively warm.

Hope you and your family and friends are safe and well.
