Courtesy of Searle. Just opened a new leaf. Seems happy right now with only low 80's highs within a shady banana clump. Hope it can handle summer heat. Anyone having luck with these in Central Florida zone 10a? I'm thinking of keeping it in a pot.

They have been a real easy one to grow for me as container palm.  Once grew one up to approx. 6' and then sold it at a recent Extravaganza Sale.

How old would you say that one is in that pic Jeff ? 

I'm guessing it's a about one foot tall. No more than 3 years or so.

Hi Jeff,

What soil mix are you growing these in?

Sorry to resurrect an old thread. I have a few Basselinia coming in and I want to adapt the soil for them if necessary. Planning peat/perlite/lava mix for now.

@Cocoa Beach Jason How’d your B. pancheri make out? I ordered 2 and 1 didn't make it very long. This one seems to be doing well so far. I ordered another back up for the one I lost and that one is floundering already. Im in Merritt Island hoping to get one or two of these to work.

I’m sorry to say it croaked. I can’t remember why bc it was a while back. I can’t remember if I tried planting in ground or if I left it in the pot. Sorry to not have more info.
