Here's my newest acquisition - a $10 Livistona chinensis. Too good of a deal to pass up!<br>

dave,
Me again, does that have several trunks? Or does it grow with a single trunk? I see those at Wal-Mart all the time up here but I never knew what they were.

I usually plant a couple of those in ground in a semi- shaded part of a border and they grow like mad. Great looking fan palm, nice job for $10. I'll give you $6 for it.
