Solid zone 9, I can expect at least one night in the mid to low twenties every year.

Hot, dry summers. Cold, wet winters.

I'm not an expert, but based on the chamaedorea types I own, it sure looks like microspadix. Mine are mature and produce a ton of reddish-orange seeds. Leaves and stems also look like your photos. Hopefully a third will confirm.

* I own microspadix, radicalis, tepejilote, costaricana & seifrizii (+ a few oddballs like plumosa, ernesti-augustii & metallica).

It's a microspadix female with the berries. If they're fertile, there's a boy somewhere nearby.

They are one of the toughest expletive palms I've run across. Best in light shade, but I saw some in full blistering sun in El Monte by a Burger King flowering and setting seed, even if the plants were yellow. One of the best palms for Europe, @NBVIBI!

...the leaves have a certain swagger....

If it was siefrezii (sorry about the spelling) they would be straight and pointy, not that swoop like you have...
