Trachycarpus fortunei – My only female of the five. This tree has the ‘flattest’ canopy as the petioles more quickly flop then kink and hang straight down. I don’t think this is characteristic for the girls. It just shows more of the variability possible with seed grown plants. I’ve just finished removing the ‘worst’ fronds and the remaining fruit structures which are amazingly heavy with fruit that looks like it could come off of a Mahonia or Juniper. This tree tends to have the roundest fronds of my plants.
