Dude! That thing is growing fast!

I think it likes Oregon.  Only two of the ones you sent survived due to being in the mail for a month.  The princeps x fortunei hybrid you sent is magnificent.

Looks great. Probably no chance of getting one north of the border though.

Wow that's incredible growth. I'm thinking I need to fertilize and give mine more water. My trachy hybrids from the same batch are nowhere near the size of yours.

I just remembered I have seeds for these! I had one germinate this weekend after being in a pot for 9 months and looked at the label to remember what it was. Sometimes I have too many on the go I lose track...

Do you have any plans to put any of yours in the ground? Seems like they could be a good choice for mild PNW locations...

Thanks!  Josue Diaz sent it as a gift with some other palms I got from him.  DoomsDave is the source of seed.  It was strap leaf when it arrived.  This is two seasons worth of growth since then.
