Steve you give me new ideas for trying new palms from seed. I might give this one a try. How are the seeds I sent you doing?

Steve that Washy looks great. It has grown great over the last year and a half . Good to see the seeds have gone to good use. Thanks for the update.

Just as well that palm seeds take 7 months for me to germinate prior to subsequent death. 😆
I'd have nearly as many as Steve!
Nice work at 3-4 weeks!
This palm resembles some of the divided ones in the Licuala family, I think.
