I was two weeks in Kenya. In Nairobi, because of the altitude of 1650 m you find not many different palm trees.

Only washingtonias, queens palms and phoenix - and the one on the pictures. I brought some seedlings of theses to Kinshasa.

Can somebody ID it?

Second question: From Mombasa I brought seeds of Hyphaene thebaica which is easy to identify. Any experiences which such seeds?
