I have no idea on the Calytrocalx, but the adscendens leaves don't look "poofy" enough?

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.

-George-Louis Leclerc de Buffon-

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!

These actually had their original tags, just algified over. Had to clean them off to see what they said. Haven't been as lucky with a lot of the other tags, sometimes they are just blank :(

Bill, I understand your doubts over the C. adscendens. Especially when you compare other specimens. I would expect to see something more like the photo below: http://www.palmtalk.org/forum/index.php?/topic/620-chamaedorea-adscendens/

This may be an extreme comparison, as I believe there there are two forms existing in habitat?

The clue in Gina's photo is that compared to the Calytrocalyx on the right, the Chamaedorea on the left has a matte, bluish hue about it.

(Having recently received some seeds from Belize, this topic struck a chord with me!)
