Shane, i do have a few but they are painfully slow with only 4 or 5 leaves after 3 of 4 years. People i know in the uk have grown them with reasonable success and have also produced seed :-)

Shane,I also have some nanus"growing"they are very small with just a few strap leaves,if you want to see a pic let me know,or just imagine any Trachycarpus with 2-3 strap leaves and you have the idea.

Thanks for the info. I have also heard that nanus is very slow growing. Have you noticed that the strap leaves are taller and slimmer than typical fortunei? Are there any sources you would recommend for seed or plants?

You can usually find seeds or plants on e-bay,I do a search whenever I think of it to see whats available,however there are none available now,but keep checking.B.T.W.the new leaves on my nanus are actually kind of wide,but its pretty small.

Shane11, my young Tr. nanus grow relatively good and leaves are a bit longer than in other Trachies. I've got them from "Europalms" and didn't regret for it :) .
With best wishes Antti

I agree with Jim, the nanus seedlings i am growing have shorter leaves but there is not a great deal of difference between nanus and fortunei at seedling stage

I also noticed since you've got me looking closer at it that,at this stage the leaves are shorter,wider and more compact then a similar sized trachy. This is not a very good pic,(I took it at night of my two little T.nanus)but you can kind of see what I mean about their leaves being more compact-if anyone else has any pics of their own plant please post some.Thanks
