Very nice L. itapebiensis. It is a palm on my wishlist.

Carambeí, 2nd tableland of the State Paraná , south Brazil.

Alt:1030m. Native palms: Queen, B. eriospatha, B. microspadix, Allagoptera leucocalyx , A.campestris, Geonoma schottiana, Trithrinax acanthocoma. Subtr. climate, some frosty nights. No dry season. August: driest month. Rain:1700mm

 

I am seeking for cold hardy palms!

Caixeta, it must be the worlds largest collection of L. itapebiensis.  I understand that now all plants in habitat have been destroyed or removed.  I feel fortunate to also have visited Itacare and seen the palms as pictured below in your photo.  I added one that I took while there (see below).

Pal Meir take care of those precious babies.  They look healthy good and maybe some year you might even have seeds forming.

I sure hope so, they look good to me!  Nice growing!

🥰
We let the rare palms survive and take care of them. I am so grateful for the fresh seeds. And it seems, at least one time I was successful.

fantastic results! It must be a good feeling to grow this species from seeds harvested from your home grown palms. I wish I also have this one growing. My S. weddellianum, hoehnei and unknow Lytocarium seedlings (seeds bought as S. insignis but are clearly not insignis) are growing good and look very healthy. Probably thanks to the tips on growing substrates I picked up reading your experiences with Lythocaryum. Do you have any of those S. itapebiensis for sale?
