That’s awesome Tim!

They are dioecious so you’ll need to find a friend for it. Or maybe a Ceroxylon or Ravenea sp if you’re feeling experimental.

Ufta! I did not know that IMPORTANT fact. I doubt I will ever get pollen from my puny, 20 year old, unhappy, C. alpinum, but the R. hillebrandtii might work. 

Jonathan is closer so he’ll have to light the pyre.

To be honest, burning Tims is probably heresy in it's own right!

Any potential pollen donors on the island?
