Hi Al, we never did get to talk palms. My parents have some beautiful mature triangle palms in their yard and they are one of my favorites. I've planted 2, lost one and the other seems very slow to take off (I planted these before I knew I had the fungus in the front yard)
Here's a link to a photo in an online palm gallery. They are three sided not flat like "traveler palms" (not a palm really)
I found mine amongst the Queen Palms mislabeled at a Home Depot (but I could easily tell what it was). I think this is pretty common as people often talk about finding more rare and expensive palms and cycads mislabeled at Home Depot on the Palm Society Board.

Sorry, off topic, great rooms btw. Love the spaghetti lamp but only one, he's lonely :(
