I posted a pic of this palm 2 years ago and yesterday I went pass to go to government house open day to check out their garden and saw that it has grown quite significantly.

I think they both look great!! It would take 20 years to have one that size in So Cal.

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!

Ari,

That's a very nice looking specimen of a Dypsis sp. white (a/k/a/ "the white Dypsis"). No botanical name known yet.

Isn't it grown to perfection? I have a feeling that it has been looked after by the same gardeners who looked after the government house. I can't wait till mine take off in the wet season. It is not that slow after all....

It looks like what RPS was selling as Dypsis sp white petiole. Great looking plant.

Very nice! Good growth.

(Has anyone ruled out the possibility that this could be a naturally-occurring hybrid with D. decaryi? I say naturally-occurring because I've seen habitat photos.)

I'd be curious to see a new picture of this plant, especially as I just discovered today that I have a few refugee Dypsis "white petiole" that survived the grasshopper onslaught.
