A top little miniature palm, easy to grow they flower pretty well much after a couple years of growing. Cool tolerant growing as far south as Sydney. Somewhat dry tolerant, perfect shade understory palm, patio, greenhouse and mist likely indoors. Very predictable growth pattern and they will fit into pretty well much any space available. The perfect miniature palm. And yes @gyuseppe I shall be thinking of you for a few seeds. And @tim_brissy_13 have tried this little beauty in your backyard refrigerator.

Yep I’ve got C tenella going well here Richard. Similar size to yours shown. Like yours, they flowered after only a couple of years from seed, both females though unfortunately so no viable seed. Just checked today and they’re sending out new inflorescences again for the next season. No issues down here in the fridge. 
 

Photo from a year ago. They’re a bit larger now.

They are a nice duo you got there, if I collect any pollen will send it down to you, keep it in the refrigerator if the girls are not ready. The three I have in my greenhouse come from eBay, so I know they are the real deal, and requested a male plant in the last eBay purchase. I got lucky!

THANKS YOU RICHARD

I had about fifty of them, unfortunately they all died from lack of water.
