Tog, awesome pic! Oh yes that is beautiful. And thanks for the info. I do not really know much about the different varieties of Areca catechu. I looked at some pictures of dwarf ones and they are mighty cute. Yes, I said cute.
Would you know a seed source for the variety from Myanmar? (I find this ironic since the Thais seem to come up with all the interesting variety of plants hehe).

Nope. What I really dislike is when the trunk is curvaceous. Not sure why I feel that way, but thats what I don't like.
My main attractions are non-tapering, bamboo-like trunk with beautifully proportioned foliage. The ones I like have aesthetically pleasing overall symmetry to my eyes. Although, I cringe whenever I see Archontophoenix planted in groups because it makes their trunk really curve.
So you see.... Hehe.
Anyways, thats awesome you got them to germinate. Congrats.
