Is that still in a pot Steve or is it planted out? 

If still in a pot, do you plan on eventually putting it in the ground? 

Only C. alba here, been the ground for about 4 months now and starting to snap out of the shock.

Here's mine. Planted 3 years ago from a 5 gal. I think. It's hard to photograph as it's behind a lot of things. Pretty tall now.

I'd say about 10 feet. You can see it tucked behind the hookeri.

That is pretty decent growth from a 5 gallon in 3 years for a New Caledonia species.  I planted this one that I had picked up in a 5 gallon at a Palm Society auction.  I planted it some time this spring or early summer to replace a Dypsis onilahensis which never did anything for me.  (The D onilanhensis got left in a 5 gallon for probably close to 5 years before planting it and got rootbound, not growing after planting and slowly degenerating).  I like the look of the many Cyphophoenix elegans I have seen on garden tours!  Looking forward to seeing all yours grow too.

The night shots are dramatic. 

This dull day does not help it much, but there you go.

Cheers Steve

It is not dead, it is just senescence.
