Ah ... now I have a very tall clumping palm that looks a lot like this one ... wonder if they're the same. I'm afraid I don't know the name of mine either!!

I have 3 different clumping palm ans don't know names ,they were given to me by a person who says a palm is a palm.
Louise these are called clumping palms ,there are many different ones , they send up succering plants from the base.

I must ask John the man who comes to do gardening for me . I am not educated much to palm . I bought 12 MACARTHURI palms from him and most are down my driveway . he sells potted plants mostly native trees.

Pitta:

There's many species of Ptychosperma. However, the ones that are native to Northern Australia are Ptychosperma macarthurii (very common) and Ptychosperma bleeseri which is very rare.
