Probably impossible to hope my big old trachy is monoecious.
But there is one green inflorescence among the other three yellow ones!

This one in the foreground has been open for a week and is staying green:

Yet everything I've read says Trachycarpus NEVER bear male and female on the same plant.

Long shot, huh?
