    Nice palm @ellidro!  How long did it take for it to flower?  Do you know if those sprouts will all be the upright form?  I just recently germinated some supposedly from the weepy form.  I think all but one seed germinated!IMG_20260324_1540482632.thumb.jpg.e7ac65f21b17d1227500355b6122b996.jpg

    Congrats on the good germination rates. There are so many forms of onilahensis it’s hard to say exactly what form it is. The parent doesn’t have the dainty look of a true “weepy” form but isn’t as robust as the other upright form in my garden.

    Out of curiosity is the seed spherical or does it have a pointed end? From what I’ve seen the weeping form has spherical seeds while the stiff leaf form has pointed seeds.

    Spherical. What’s odd is I have three seeding onilahensis in the yard and all have different seed shapes and sizes and all look different as adults. This specific plant is so what in the middle of weepy and stiff leaf look but has spherical seeds.
