This palm is at the Tonga Apartments in Ventura (no longer part of the Sullivan properties).  Some of these photos can be compared to the other post about CIDP pollen.  The base photo is difficult to see the cut off "heads" but you can see sprouts that might be 1 foot tall coming from each cut head.  With just 3 heads still growing, you can compare trunks, leaves and height to the other post and both appear to have been planted near the same timeframe.  These seeds were cleaned by finger nail, 2 hour water soak, sown same day and germinated in 4 weeks.  The height of this seedling which is just above 3 inches happened in just 1 week.  Notice how slender the trunk is.  There are 2 P. Roebellenii each 50 feet away in opposite directions, but I don't know about when they flowered.  In another 2 1/2 years, I will have photos comparing seedling photos.  Now I guess I have to wait 20 years to compare the adult HYBRIDS.

I have 2 similar posts regarding P. Reclinatas from 2 different locations about 60 miles apart, but I am guessing this post has P. Roeb pollen and the parallel post has CIDP pollen, so time will tell but I am trying to post at the same time the progress of each.  This candidate is now in a 1 gallon container with 7 seeds sown.  The age of this is 1 year 2 months from germination.  Both projects are equally healthy, I feel have identical green color, get the same watering schedule, same protected shade canopy from California Pepper trees and sit above the ground so the bunnies don't start snacking.  With less growth time on this candidate, one thing I believe is true,  all 7 seeds have identical base-trunk diameters.  I do NOT see indication of P. Reclinata traits of "suckering" occurring yet.

Photo #1 is an over all family photo

Photo #2 is showing the base diameters which I feel are identical.

How about a reclinata x dactylifera hybrid? It can produce date like fruits, smaller in size than real dates but equally tasty. They can be used for making a date liqueur.

You’re a great palm daddy!

Aside from suckering, big indicators of reclinata ancestry are flat dark green leaves that tend to hold themselves perpendicular  to the ground. 
 

Send us pics when they go pinnate, looks like soon.

When they start to show that perpendicular habit?
