The palm in the lower two pictures is sending out three inflorescences at once.

Dave it looks healthy so hopefully the spathe will open normally and you will actually get a flower bract.   My largest has produced the flower spathes for years, only to abort them before opening.  It is currently holding two, but I have learned not to expect much from them.

Looking great, Dave! I have nearly a dozen seedlings in 1g pots. Took their time getting some size.

Question: Wasn't Kentiopsis subsumed in Chambeyronia , i.e., Chambeyronia oliviformis?

Yes, you are correct.  Dave was just persisting in old habits.

Glad to hear it. A couple days ago I told another PTer that info and I was worried I might be misinforming him.

OK , now I have to put a new tag on my Pyroformis! It’s so small most folks miss it anyway! HarryIMG_0339.thumb.jpeg.855ad46c79eb5386a44229f1a9a04b64.jpeg

It looks much smaller in the ground near our other large , overshadowing palms. So very slow at this age.
