Two of my favourite palms licuala sallehana, triphylla

My absolute two favourites . Licuala sallehana var sallehana and licuala triphylia. They take the cool weather well for such little tropical classics. Spring will see them go in the ground. Perfect understory specimens just waiting to go in!

Such cool palms , and fruiting to boot. Looks like you will be able to have some seedlings as well someday. Harry

I hope so! I did manage to buy ten of them for $15 aus dollars each super bargain price for good sized tube stock, if he’d a hundred I would have purchased the lot.

I paid something like $35 for tiny little seedlings.

There is a great nursery in Southern California that has some very rare stuff. I don’t go there because the seedlings start at about $30-$40 each . I enjoy the “hunt” . I once bought a 15 gallon Arenga that was in a private collection , almost 6’ tall including the pot ….$50! Private collectors tend to be generous with pricing. Since I met @DoomsDave and a couple of other private growers that I know , I rarely buy palms at nurseries . I still visit the nursery in Ventura , occasionally they have something interesting that I can buy plus they have all the good mulch , garden soil , and small bags of organic fertilizer . Harry
