Must be something in the air because I also repotted my radicalis seeds from Doomsdave today (along with a bunch of other seedlings).

Well that's nice to see!

Keep them well-watered, but let them dry a bit between waterings. They'll take low light, but do a lot better with more, even full sun.

Be warned that most Chamadoreas aren't that sun-tolerant.

Is there a size where they get more hardy like trachycarpus? Was aiming for 2019 to plant mine but could wait longer.

I have a pot of seedlings I forgot about during the winter, they are all alive and doing well.

Here I left a pic of one of many I repotted 1 month ago. It’s about 1 year old. They spent the winter outside without a blink.

@DoomsDave Just potted them up and fed them save for 4. One was put in my pineapple test pot, and 3 are still in the cell.

Just my way of cataloging and tracking progress of what does and doesn't work. Right now my garden is still very much reeling from winter so it doesn't look too good. My hope is come august I'll have enough growth to finally cut away the really bad looking fronds, but my #1 rule is never cut anything green.

I grew these from seed you sent me last spring. Most of the babies have been gifted away to friends and family across Colorado and Kansas City;  these are the ones that remain in my care.

Looking great! I do wonder if these can take more wet or they prefer more drought? So fast draining or normal potting soil?

Probably around 10 years from seed. They have been seeding for the last 4-5 years.

I was about to ask how old also. Mine seem to be doing okay but just painstakingly slow. These will be a great foundation/accent if I were to design a tropical themed yard in my marginal zone one day.

And these had no protection at all when we had that night of 16F.

Nice, very healthy and exotic-looking for a zone 8 palm (though I know you're in zone 9a).

Wow, 10 years that's a long time.:blink: 16f thats pretty cold, these might survive my zone.

You have tried to sow the seed you got from them and do you get truncking forms sometimes?

Mine grow pretty normal, but they are in a green house and i give them some fertilizer every 2 weeks or so.

I think i might be able to pull off 2 leafs in 1 summer and they only 1 year old.

They are mixed, some are the "king kong" I got from Perry. Yes the seeds are fertile I sprout them every year. They are flowering now & continue flowering until Dec. most years.

Great, must be alot of fun to be able to grow these every year. Pretty easy to germinate too.

I have one final question :blush::lol: would these polinate indoors too if i had multiple plants, or would i have to hand polinate these to get seeds? Thx

As long as you have male & female plants. You can pull off a male flower & rub it on the female or use a fan...
