Never had a flower on any of my palms Karl :( Only some leftover stalks from before I bought them, from when they lived in a hotter clime i'm guessing :lol:

All mine are much too small probably another 3-5 years to wait with my largest.
Most wanted list - Any Young Trachycarpus and/or fern.

Trachycarpus flower at around 10 years, or at 6ft including leaves, whichever is the latter :) Some years the flowers are open now, but this year the inflorescence branch is only just starting to show. Will be June here before full flowering.
Best regards
