The very next day, Lemurophoenix halleuxii dropped a frond to spectacular effect. Photos were taken within an hour or two of the event, allowing capture of the saturated colors.

Spectacular. Both those trees are virtually a no go here in CA. Well done.

Really nice Kim!  My Hovomantsina recently dropped a frond as well and revealed its first flower.

Some days I want to get out the chainsaw and have the whole place concreted over. Those colours are what lured me into palms in such a big way.
