Planted from a 6" pot around 10 years ago it's certainly grown better than expected.  Plenty of rain and not much competion from other palms helps.

I wish mine will end up looking like that. Alas they're very slow to start here in the cooler Cloudforest above Hilo in Hawaii. Not sure what the issue is, these are rather rare in East Hawaii maybe they need more heat.
