If last weekend’s plant sales at the pacsoa show wasn’t enough of a fix of palms, iam at again with some great little gems online. This time with a pholidostachys species, licuala poonsaki, Zamia nana new accumunata and a philodendron Bob Cee. This little haul along with last weekend’s plants might do for a week of plant fix’s. By then it will be time to buy some more for another plant fix.

They will not get potted up it’s too late to pot up the rare stuff. Next spring they will get done or planted in the ground.

Iam hooked on zamias and Cerotazamia sp especially. The new leaf colours are amazing. I just purchased 3 Zamia pseudoparasitica now that’s one Iam definitely wanting to grow and keep healthy if I can.

I am very focused on those genera too! Hope the psuedos grow great for you! They are so awesome! Huge leaves, and nice color, some of mine are 2m. Waiting for a female to show, have several males revealed. I’ve had some CZ species for many years, but the recent field work has brought amazing species to cultivation, like zoquorum, hondurensis etc. Happy planting!!

Yes a bob cee philodendron and a Zamia nana I just love them. Philodendron and anthuriums are a new plant to me to start collecting. My only wish is I should have started my collection years ago.

The new varieties of CZ are not available in Australia at the moment but iam sure given time they will be. There are so many cycas species to collect it never ends. Only problem with collecting plants is you get sidetracked on one particular species only to miss out on something better that has not caught your attention.

I started collecting philodendrons, anthuriums and other assorted aroids 30 years ago and still see ones I have never heard of before. I have been after a Licuala poonsaki for years but only ever see the very tiny plants and everyone knows how quickly I kill anything under 25cm high. You scored a lovely big sized one so now I am going to crawl off and sulk for  a week. (after I delete my ebay account)

I fell in love with them they are so addictive and beautiful plants. If I had  started 30 years ago I could dream of what I would have, so now iam off to sulk and spend up big on eBay buying more anthuriums. But on the bright side you get my entire collection if I start pushing up daisies any time soon.

Falls der Pflanzenverkauf vom letzten Wochenende auf der Pacsoa-Messe noch nicht genug Palmen für Sie war, bin ich wieder mit ein paar tollen kleinen Schätzen online. Diesmal mit einer Pholidostachys-Art, Licuala Poonsaki, Zamia nana new accumunata und einem Philodendron Bob Cee. Diese kleine Ausbeute zusammen mit den Pflanzen vom letzten Wochenende reicht für eine Woche Pflanzen-Fix. Bis dahin wird es Zeit, weitere Pflanzen für einen weiteren Pflanzen-Fix zu kaufen.

Indeed it is. I think the wife is onto me about buying so many plants. It will be a tough decision the wife or palms. What advice would you give me as iam pretty sure you might have the same problem.

My wife just told me this morning that she was glad that our space is limited.

She then surprised me with the daffodils she bought before 12.00 noon.

So the answer is both 🤗😁

I like the way you think, clever man! And the best part is I get to buy more palms!

I will say one thing and that is a good lady knows her flowers well. We may know our palms well but when it comes to flowers the wives know best. 😆

Beautiful unfortunately I can’t grow daffodils or tulips it’s not cold enough for them to grow and produce flowers. On the plus side I can grow lots of tropical palms, so there’s a balance between the two palms and if I want daffodils I have to buy them for the wife because I buy so many palms gotta keep the wife happy as you know 🤣
