Dean! That palm is beautiful. I'm completely unfamiliar with it too. Is it some kind of Dypsis or something else? Where did you get these? Hmm... Maybe in the next Tropicscape auction?

Wow! Really amazing stuff. Interesting how many of these blooms come from orchids. I'll be looking at this thread a few more times, and see what I might be able to obtain and grow in my garden. We have a Dove orchid in the ground at the Audubon House. It was in full bloom a couple of months...

Dean, I thought these were dioecious. Do you have a male nearby? Beautiful palm, I love them too. Wind protection helps to keep those leaves from tearing. I have one at a clients yard that takes quite a bit of sun and still looks great.

I believe George is calling this one Kurt Decker.

If you use the store brand stuff, use it full stength. If you use a concentrated 35% like I do, dilute 10-12 oz per gallon

That thing is a beast!

Marie, I was thinking the same thing. I got to get a real good look at the plant Jeff Searle got at the last auction. It was Jose's croton. There are definitely affinities.

I finally got this beauty planted yesterday. I purchased this Pigafetta filaris as a 4 inch palm a little over a year ago. It went in the ground as a 4 ft well rooted 7 gallon palm. I am hoping to get long term success with this palm due to our very mild winters in Key West. It is on display...

Sorry to hear this sad news. My condolences to you and your family Jerry.

This plant has been looking real good lately, so I wanted to post some pics. I planted it this week.
