Mike, thanks so much for the video showing the male and female flowers.
Good to see the colour variation and how you pollinate them.

My big boy is definitely a male, and no other Trachy is flowering here yet to see if they're female.

I saw the CBC story link (text only) with a photo.
Didn't see the live news interview, but will try to access it online when I have time.

Thanks for this!!!

Love your place's palm landscape...fabulous!

My trachy's flowers...probably a male (but not certain)

Nothing happened with adding male pollen last year, so we felt mine must be a male.

So are these truly yellow? Yet there's a greenish hue, maybe from not being fully open?
