Very nice! Its hard to say what a typical trachy is because no 2 are the same. I have 5 trachys, 3 in the ground and every single one of them is completely different. One has leaflets that are very droopy and light green, another has leaflets that are dark green (white on the undersides) and very straight (sort of like yours, except your leaflets are more divided than mine), and the last one is droopy and dark green.
Yours definitely looks different than most, the fronds are much studier looking and the leaflets thinner looking. I wouldnt say its a different cultivator, but it is a beautiful trachy that seems to have some good cold tolerance as well!
Thanks for sharing!

My trachys have fronds that are divided that deep. But yours are definitely more rounded than any of mine. Very nice looking palm.

Looks like a Fortunei to me,sometimes the leaves droop as they get older
but some Fortunei...Nainital,Tesan,Bulgarian Trachys,do hold their leaf
blades more erect.
There may be a new variety called Winsan named/discovered(?)
by Garry in China(Coldplant.com)but in regard to the 360 degree leaves,
it may just be a feature that some Trachy exhibit for what ever reason......
I have seen Fortunei,Tesan and Waggies all exhibit this same feature
although in varying degrees.

Hi IslandBreeze,

Looks great. The more it grows and becomes a prize palm, it becomes hard to replace. I mentioned to you to cover it last year and I am glad you did. I have seen one person after another on this forum risk their palms and kill them needlessly. Its clear the palms need to be covered in zone 6b and even in 7a-b if planted out in the open to protect from frozen precip in the bud. Where I live we had one survive in an open field since the 1980s, once they stopped covering it, it died.
