Variegated Arenga Englerii. New leaves are nice and perfect at this stage but get ratty and brown as the leaf gets older

Licuala Sumawongii -- No actual trunk yet but the leaves of this palm are getting bigger and bigger every time and they are just perfect and unblemished when they are newly opened.

Here is my contribution to this thread. My Chambeyronia macrocarpa puts out a new leaf four times a year. I look forward to each and every flush of color. It typically lasts about 4-8 days before greening up.

Some beauties here. Seems that we can never get too much of those special displays from our palms particularly when they only last for some days or weeks.

Now I have a couple not shown here before.

This is a Calyptrocalyx pachystachys 'Bedang Dawn Noda Noda'

Pretty wee thing indeed.

Jim, that's an interesting and different looking Calyptrocalyx. And Welfia is always a winner! I guess a few more photos can't hurt! :)
