We went to a plant nursery that we don't often go to, and they had some nice things.

What kinda palms are those in the 3rd pic? Licuala grandis? I am no palm expert, by ANY means! Wonderful-looking plants, though! Love those tree ferns too. Thanks for sharing!

Nothing comes with a name or label here, and if you ask the nursery staff - they will tell you "palm"! lol

With the amount of biodiversity in the tropics you can't really blame them. :ha:
I knew this palm, but can't find the name now. If I do, I'll post it here.

I dont think its a Fiji fan palm. It looks to me like some type of Licuala

I agree with Blake, Licuala doesnt have devided leaves.
