Is this Chamaedorea microspadix

[PalmatierMeg]

I bought this palm(s) as Chamaedorea microspadix at a Ft. Myers Big Box several years ago. It has been growing happily at the edge of my jungle ever since. The pot it came in had multiple stems but since I planted it, it has clustered little if at all. I've tried to photograph it from several angles but the jungle tries to horn in on the photos. Its ripe fruit is black, round and the size of a large pea. The stems are 1" or so in diameter

So, is this Cham micro? If not, what is it? Chamaedorea experts, please let inquiring minds know.

Chamaedorea microspadix: ???

Its not microspadix.

[Brucer]

Microspadix has red seeds and dull leaves.

I have a lot of C. microspadix in pots and they seem to have papery sheaths....don't think yours has them from the photo's.

[PalmatierMeg]

Thanks, guys. Does anyone know what this palm might be?

Hi Meg, I agree with Andrew, I think it's a seifrizii!

Let us know when you know for sure,

I have a feeling I do. Now to decide what to do with excess seeds and 8-10 1g seedlings. I hate to call any palm worthless but in this case I may have to.

I vote C. seifrizii. I have three and, Meg, yours looks just like them.
