Wow. I can't believe it filled a 24 inch box. How tall is it?

Tim it has grown so slow for the last three years that the total height is about 32". By the end of summer it should have some good new growth with the fronds getting much larger and healthier. 8)

Good looking palm
Looks great planted, John.

Amazing how fibrous some of these root systems are.
