Bentinckia nicobarica grove

I remember I saw these palms ten years ago, when it was easier to admire their crownshaft.

this one wants to grow! (natural situation)

Thanks for the beautiful photos. I planted three in the garden and then saw how tall they can get and how undintinguishable when looking up. I came home and took two of them out, but couldn't bear to remove all of them, so I still have one left.

Tim,

I didn't plant these two but they already rooted through the pot and became quite strong , I'll have to take them out too!
