Howdyall:

Here's a picture of my largest B. madagascarensis, or no window, or whatever.

It suffered serious damage in the Great Freeze of January 2007, but by June of 2008, looked a lot better, if small.

Here it is a few days ago.

Much bigger, about 5-6 feet tall.

Wow Dave! That is some great growth for a notoriously SLOW grower. I'm impressed!

Even though this one is slow I like it. It just has a real nice look to it and fills in nicely in an area where you need a smaller palm. I have never seen a picture of a mature specimen though, has anyone?

The Hoopers, downhill from me have one that's 30 years old, no trunk.

But mag-[expletive]-nificent. About 15 feet tall.

Like a giant version of my specimen, without the Shoe.

Love to see a picture of that sometime. How about a drive by shooting?
