PINANGA CAESIA
  Every year I see it , she looks better and healthier. It shows always this beautyful colour combination.
   
PINANGA CORONATA
  Not uncommon to cultivation, when well cared after, this palm is a very attarctive one with its coloured new leafs, formal look and multistemmed habit
   
ENCEPHALARTROS LAURENTIANUS
  Not a palm, but this old lady cycad, measuring already 4m trunk, deserves its own space here. It has been pollinated successfully last year for the first time . Now it has many 'baby' E. laurentianus.
   
PYTELEPHAS MACROCARPA
  One of the many rarities. Extensive clearing and better light conditions provide a better growth.
   
DYPSIS MADAGASCARIENSIS
  A very impressive grower. Has grown approx. 5m in the last 3 years. Most spectacular plumose tristichous crown.
   
Pruning Time...
  Phoenix canariensis being pruned. Salacca zalacca in the foreground.
