    Hello, maybe you might be of some help to me. I just purchase a strange palm tree from our local garden store and have difficulty to identify it. It is a 9 foot palm tree, if has a triangular trunk and base. The branches are long and star from the trunk at a 45 degree angle with a yellow streek along them. Could you please help me with some info on how to grow this one some I dont loose it.
    Thanks!

    I am guessing the palm is a triangle palm.
    here's a link with some good pictures to help you identify it.

    scroll down to the "t's" to find the triangle palm.

    Not in Vancouver

    The only feather palms I would try are the jubaea chilensis and butia eriospatha palms.
