# I couldn’t wait to put this in a pot before sharing. Long story…

_Posted by Dave\_opuntiaface on 2023-07-22_

I couldn’t wait to put this in a pot before sharing. Long story forthcoming, but this comes from a 35-year old Pachypodium lamerei  
(Madagascar Palm) belonging to someone local. I bought a couple plants from her in May, and game recognized game haha. She popped up again on local classifieds, and had been thinking of how in love I was with her two palms. And now I have a freaking amazing part of history. Stay tuned.

Note its tiny cousin (it’s maybe three years old)
