Had a busy day today and didn't have time to post long topics. But while going through my photos I found a series of photos of my Chambeyronia Houailou in the Jungle with a new red leaf before, then after Ian. I first noticed this stunning leaf the day before Ian's fateful visit. I grabbed my camera to take photos just in case....... Well, no, I don't attach mystical meanings to everyday events and I had no inkling what was in store. I just like pretty photos.

Chambeyronia look like they help up quite well.  ?

Yes and no. I lost two adult and two juvenile C. macrocarpa to Ian. But I think in anything under cat 4/5 is well within their scope and I did have a couple adults that survived in the jungle. More on palm survival upcoming
