I love these palms...I have a couple of young ones growing at home...this one was a transplant from the garden of the late Wal Donovan. It has grown very well for me and I have a new appreciation for this variety of D.album... Please post photos of yours if you are growing it ...

Fabulous palms! I wish they grew half that good for us. The essence of the tropical look.

I have some small ones I just got from Floribunda planted right outside my main window. Cant wait for them to look like these! They've already put out several new leaves, are they fast growers?

Absolutely a favorite in my garden, Daryl.  The attached leaflet patterns are fascinating, as well as the velvety white I the center of the crown.

There is something about the form of this palm that make it IMO one of the most beautiful palms I have seen. I still find it hard to believe that it is a D. album since I planted a D. album and a D. album conjugatum at the same time, and at the same size. And while they look so very different, the D. album now has at least ten feet of trunk, and the var. conjugatum hasn't even started trunking yet. Go figure.

Great pics!  I have 4 seedlings that I received bare root along with 3 of the rubrum variety.   I had read the rubrum were fast and the conjugatum were slow, I have plenty of room for slow palms as much of my palms have gone skyward in 10 years.  they sure are pretty! 

Formerly in Gilbert AZ, zone 9a/9b. Now in Palmetto, Florida Zone 9b/10a??
