Planted out from one gallon FB pot on November 115h.  Happy to see new leaf and nice color today.

These little palms are so rewarding! So many new red fronds. Plant more to form a group, you won't regret it.

On Palmpedia there is an interesting article submitted by Charlie Beck, which details growing Calytropocalyx in Palm Beach County, Florida. He observes that C. pachystachys appear cold sensitive and has no pictures of this obscure variety.

I went through my ANSG rolodex and could only find one Calytropcalyx growing in this garden and it is the only variety that is solitary in nature, a Calytropcalys spicatus, which is from the Moluccas and not from New Guinea. Twenty-six (26) of the twenty-seven (27) varieties are from New Guinea. Here is the C. spicatus:19D71C7F-71ED-4E10-8F07-D0D2903F1CB2.thumb.jpeg.12b3ea2927ce35c2a7d1ff4113a8de47.jpegEFB606B6-13EB-4A3E-BF3E-EECFCF7CC9D6.thumb.jpeg.cd9e441a0e27b988c4de6e3dbfc0a93c.jpeg
