Thrinax radiata

[WaianaeCrider]

Bought a 3 gallon clump back in May of 2020.  Cut it in half and planted each half.  Here is Clump 2 when planted and today.  It's doing better than clump 1.  I'll have to get pictures of that one tomorrow.

I really like the look of these as multiples.  They look good as singles, but a little lonely sometimes.  They put them in all over in groups and singles, by the beach, at Lauderdale by the Sea, and they look really nice and happy there.  Drought, alkaline, and poor-soil tolerant.

Mine is Thrinax parvifolia about 20 months ago, I think it is similar?

The only downside is in the maintenance. Mine is a triple and they get so intertwined that it becomes difficult to trim. Unlike a Veitchia, they don’t develop a large arc at the base and the crowns end up close together. If I were to do it over, I would probably plant a bunch of singles spaced out more.
