It could also be Malcolmberi?

I'm afraid I just read the label in the pot. I am by no means a Dypsis expert but I imagine Josh-O knows what he's talking about.

If you grew from seed, from what I understand there are several species that grow close in some areas, you may have some sort of hybrid.

Zone 10a at best after 2007 AND 2013, on SW facing hill, 1 1/2 miles from coast in Oceanside, CA. 30-98 degrees, and 45-80deg. about 95% of the time.

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 like that theory! I acquired this palm from Tyrone as a tiny little 2 leafer only 3 years ago. It was growing in the back of the shadehouse until recently, it seems to have put on quite alot of growth within a short period of time, good growth for my standards at least. Those petioles just don't look like those of a Mananjarensis, at least for now.

I'm not real sure, but it looks like what came in to me years ago as Dypsis sp. Lemana's Baronii. It's not Dypsis mananjarensis.

I don't think that plant had irregular leaflets though.

Looking really good Peter. I'm glad you ended up with it. This was only one seed that came up from a batch of Dypsis mananjarensis seed from RPS maybe 5 years ago. Like all Dypsis though, when young they can look like so many other Dypsis. Keep growing it up and get it to flower and then it's true identity should unfold. :)
