I didn't know that the Needle Palm could have more than one trunk coming out of the soil. Or is it a single trunk/more plants?

Great Job! Yhey look good, have you thought about separating the trunks into seperate plants! It might be a "needling" operation.

I'm definitely leaving it as is. The other"trunks" are all coming off of the main trunk above the ground. First time I've noticed this, but I'm no expert. She is pretty, isn't she. Even has flowers!
