Anthuriums seem to thrive at my place but they get huge in no time flat and I have to move them on to new homes. I have noticed that the hybrids are cheaper as a rule but I have always tended to go for the 'pure' varieties. Probably a throw back from my years of showing and breeding dogs !  I am interested to find out how the Socratea goes over winter. I always liked them but was never game enough to try one. So far none of the Lanonia/Licuala species I grow have shown any signs of winter stress and are thriving in the current high humidity. You do better than me with online purchases. I need a microscope to see anything I buy.

Yay ! New plant(s) day. Enjoy them . Years (at least 20)ago I had a couple of seedling shipped FedEx to my house from Maui . I had no idea they could ship live plants . I visited a Palm and botanical garden and he had some pretty good prices on seedlings . I told him that I would scoop them up but I live in California , he said “no problem”. Back then , even with shipping , it was a great deal. I don’t know what it is like over there in Australia or now a days , but a nice way to get plants. Both palms are still alive and thriving!  Harry
