I think I may have a clue on what species of Chamaedorea is in the following photographs. But there are a number of species of clumping bamboo Chams out there, i.e., potchulensis, costaricana, seifrizii, elegans, microspadix and more. So, which one did I photograph? It has managed to survive intense summer drought with some irrigation and has made it through one month of a dreary, cloudy below normal winter daytime temps that seldom rise above the mid-60s F during the day and upper-40s, low-50s nights for the past 6 weeks. Those clouds are shielding our palms from potentially freezes but still make some of our palms, i.e., very unhappy. Coconuts and Pritchardia pacifica yellow and cold burn below 50F. We are also back in dry season drought.

Cool. All my other microspadix didn't survive.

@PalmatierMeg I don't think any amount of cold will kill these for you. Mine don't like drought and need to be kept out of the sun.
