Out at the nursery this past Friday, Jeff Searle and I noticed this palm in flower... to our rather stunned surprise. It is in a 3 gallon pot, healthy and not stressed sporting a small, compact inflorescence. We know which species it is, but we wondered who could ID it via this image. Any ideas? :winkie:

Well, it appears to be tillering and have 3 stamens so maybe it's a Dypsis. I'm guessing, because they are not available here, but mananjarensis maybe?

Thats just a piece of calamari.

Well, I was looking out in my greenhouse briefly today and saw my D. manajarensis that had "stopped" growing a while back... I saw a "spike" I thought that seemed to have a lot of scale on it. I kept thinking I should spray it for bugs, but I did nothing. Today I saw this..

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!

I'd go for "what".

Happy Gardening
