I recently purchased a Dypsis labled "140". It is suposed to be one of the big slow growing ones.

If anyone has an idea what it is and a photo of a more mature one I would be grateful if you could post it and let me know its growing preferences.

Thanks

Brod

Whatever it is I like "140".  :D

Zone 10a at best after 2007 AND 2013, on SW facing hill, 1 1/2 miles from coast in Oceanside, CA. 30-98 degrees, and 45-80deg. about 95% of the time.

I do some experiments and learning in my garden with palms so you don't have to experience the pain! Look at my old threads to find various observations and tips!

The palm in question looks remarkably like Dypsis sp "Marias stumpy" which is now being referred to as Dypsis robusta. I'll try & post a couple of photos of some seedlings to a larger one that I have.

I dont think that it is Dypsis canaliculata or prestoniana. But I really am just guessing.

Looks like D. prestoniana or D. robusta.  I can't tell them apart.

I think that they look pretty similar but to be certain I think it will take 15 years or so until they mature.

Brod,

     It looks just like D. prestoniana. But that's just a one in a million guess. :D
