Bamboo palm flowering

Chamaedorea seifreizii has male/female on the same plant (dioecious).
Always blooms the next month after it goes into the cold building.

It just keeps clumping along:

Spends all summer outdoors, and thrives on neglect as long as it gets enough water.

If you drink, don't drive. Don't even putt.

Thanks Tim, but this guy likes to be ignored.
