Yes, that little plant deserves a very special pot!

It got the special pot only for that photo shooting. :P Now it must live together with its siblings again in a narrow »one-for-four« pot. :D

I can't stand the slowness of this tiny jewel.

But it looks like that this newest leaf might be partially pinnate! :yay:

And then they take off right?

L itapebiense is an understorey palm with creeping (acaulescent) stem growing in shade to semi shade on slopes at 250-350 m altitude. — My four babies are at present growing on a bright NNW windowsill.

It doesn't look like it, though #5 is not entirely unfolded yet. Still I expect it to remain entire.

This is the 2 days older sister N°1604, pushing her 7th leaf since 2018-05-23. The 4th leaf had already 7 leaflets and the 5th 11 leaflets. — The surface of your soil looks so clean, compared to mine although it is the same mix … :blink:

As I could see that there were no problems or any growth delay after repotting the two first palms I decided today to repot the remaining two palms N°1603 & N°1604 too:

@Kai, after they have developed pinnate leaves they are growing like rockets. :D

Compared to my 1 year young nano Lytos N°1701-03 :wub: the 2 years old L itapebiense are looking like huge monster palms: :o

All four palms now repotted into the relatively large 16x16xH12cm containers; I waited so long because the May here in Germania was as cold as in last ice age: :bemused:

Awesome palms. I have pretty much given up on this one & Insigne. Impossible to find. I have been searching over 5 year now.
