I have lver 30 Alexander Palms in my yard. I absolutely love them. I think they have a look of royalty. I grew them all from seeds or collected seedlings. Like you sais they are easy to grow. I'm in Palm Beach Co.
I also saw your video on archontophoenix purpurea. I've always wanted to grow it, but after watching that video and this one, I think I'd stick to the alexandrae. The purprea has that colorful crownshaft, but I actually find the fronds of the alexandrae and other species more beautiful. They are fuller and cascade gracefully. And according to this video, grow really well in South Florida apparently a lot better than the purprea.
Janice - I have just bought one an Alexandrea in S France - in the indoor section I haven't a clue what to do with it!! I thought it was a Kentia palm! Can it be grown indoors??
Does the King Palm, Alexander, cope well in full sun? And windy days in winter ? Is this palm a very thirsty palm? Compared to say a Adonidia or Royal palm? We had bad winds and killed 2 of my kings, in pot, yet Christmas palns sailed through. Might have been a mealy bug issue, if palm damaged by winds then attacked by mealy bugs. For outdoor palms with mealy bugs, you recommend a mixture of shampoo and water ??
I have a Cunningham in a pot in Lake Charles, La. Think it would be okay in the ground? Or should I just keep it potted? Zone 9. Also what about a Bismarck? Thanks!
Thanks for the info is what very helpful to me.

Bottle palms are short and fat. Alexander palms are tall and medium-sized trunk.
@yasirliaqat1990 yes
Thank you for sharing. I just planted my first Alexandrae along with 2 Foxylady palms a month ago here in Tampa.

What are the palms in front of the miami beach convention center? They sometimes are yellow under the crownshaft. They kinda look like these
