Could be mislabeled!

Here is one of mine with fruits.  Just took the pictures.  Sorry, it's a bit dark.

I have one nice one in the garden and a recent purchase from pacsoa. Slow growing I know that much.

Once it gets to trunking it definitely picks up speed.  You'll see.

Looking good Richard. 
 

They’re pretty fast down here. Maybe there’s not enough warmth for them up there 🤣

Here’s 8 years of growth from a very nearly dead seedling I managed to transplant from a garden before it died. Glad I did. 
 

 

6 years between the before and after shots of my larger C oliviformis.

 My large one only ever holds 4 leaves and a spear,. A few more years and will get there!

For a minute there I thought you were serious about the warmth, but then I realised that you live in a refrigerator!🤣I will say that’s one rescue mission with a success. Well done sick palms are tricky to bring back.

If only you lived in the subtropical climate, you would have one heck of a collection! 

My (4) Kentiopsis are fruiting for 3-6 years now and some spots under them are wet and shady enough for volunteers.  Overall height I estimate at 22-32' tall.  They still are a few leaves short(~3-4) of a full crown(10-12 leaves) after Milton stripped them 18 months ago.  Some have currently green fruits that will turn red in a couple months if restrictions are lifted and we can get them watered.  They are water lovers, maybe its better they have less leaves in a drought.  Trouble free palms that add the dark green crownshafts and leaves for a complementary look to the other crownshafts.   These do like their Mg, K to stay that darker green color.  I dust them along with my cuban copernicias with langbeinite every year and fertilize with florikan palm osmotic release fertilizer.   They are so tall, I have to crank my neck to look at the crowns these days.  They do provide some good filtered shade for the C. macrocarpas I have under them.

Nice!  They held up well to Milton.  These should be more widely planted.  Easy palm and definitely a rare grow.  Don't see them at all down here.  My 2 are doing well.  Sprouted 3, not that I have room to plant them.  

Kentiopsis Oliviformis opened a new leaf today. Compared to some others on here, it looks to be more stretched out. It has no rings of trunk yet but it’s 10ft+ to the top of the frond.

Hahaha, Indeed. It’s an inevitability I’ll have to edit the garden and that’s ok. I knew the job when I took it.
