| Also, it does have a label as you can see in the picture: http://i697.photobucket.com/albums/vv332/dreytan/forthread.jpg but it's a generalized label that says foilage and medium light but no details as to what this palm is. |

| Thanks for your reply.. yes the dypsis family does have the leaves coming out just like this baby palm, in the same diagonal way at the base. This baby palm's leaves are also stiff and thick even though they look feathery. When I move it it makes a deeper noise like that of a grown tree moving in the wind because of its rough leaves. I also looked at the Howea belmoreana which is one of the two Kentia palms (the other is Howea forsteriana) the baby of this looks incredibly alike including the trunk and the way the leaves come out of it. The belmoreana is curlier and smaller than the forsteriana palm tree. Here it is when larger but still without a trunk and it does look just like my baby palm. I've read they are very slow growing and do well in only medium light. |
