New babies

In February I went to Kew gardens and a seed from a bottle palm tree fell into my pocket.

Here it is now.



I took a cutting from an epiphyllum, this is the first time I have done this, and going by the new leaf, it looks like it has rooted.

 

I know we shouldn't do it Rich but the temptation is hard to resist, have you got the latin name?

 

It's a Hyophorbe.

I didn't feel too guilty about liberating it, the tree was about 20 feet high and smothered in them as was the surrounding ground.

 

Its a nice looking palm, seems a bit tender, conservatory I bet. :D
Look out for the RSM.
