This is one of my first hybrids. It's beginning to flower and surprise, forming some fruits.

Alberto,

what a beauty. Read about the beginning of this palm. Congrats for your good job.

I love the hybrids of butia with syagrus and or Jubaea. Unfortunately in Europe it's hardly possible to get affordable plants or even seeds. Keep us updated about its progress.

I collected the pollen about 11 years ago in the city of Olimpia st. São Paulo. The Syagrus oleracea had a very slender trunk of about 10 cm diameter. About 8 years ago they were planted out.

It's a beautiful palm Alberto, and a bonus that it's forming fruit. Congratulations.

For those of you that frequent Facebook, I’ve set up a group called “Pommy palms”, where many of the palms I’ve seen since emigrating to Australia have been documented. If you wish to be a member, copy and paste “Pommy palms” into Facebook to view the page and click “Join group”.

Very nice. The mules around here all set seeds as well, but the seeds are solid & not viable... Great looking palm.

I have to wait the seeds mature and will see if they are viable....

Could it be that the flowers have been pollinated by some of your butia or syagrus?
