Thanks a mint Geoff. I have a young P. horombense raised from seed & some other species I am about to try germinating. Can't think where else I could have found so much useful info. As usual, the pictures you've gathered for the article are amazing too.
Fat plants rule.
Geoff,
you have one of the most entertaining sites. I love all your photos and your info is so...informative.
I reside in the Point Loma San Diego and have a couple of Lamerei, one of which is getting to a nice size, about 4 ft, and a Namaquanum, and a Geayi. I am happy to report good news on the Lam and the Nam but the Geayi have been a challenge. Too much water i think.
I will get more and control myself with the watering thing better.
Thanks for the advice and guidance.
PS we have a truly wonderful pair of Bismarckia palms at Balboa Park if you're ever here, go see them, they are by the Botanical Garden (slat house)
I should have known it.
I wish I had room in my yard for some of those beauts. I'm not much of a palm guy but Bismarckias are truly exceptional and well worth the real estate.
Ditto; nice orientation to pachypodiums. I was considering trying to start some seed and am looking (around DG) for some tips. Like that awesome article about aloes- have my first successful attempt at aloe seeds- (half-dozen A. polyphylla)-couple look like they are going to make it.
