Yeah I asked her if she was confusing it but she was adamant that it was
GCP. I have learnt not to argue with her when she is so 'certain' (in-law
diplomacy grin)

I was quite surprised by her statement also as I would never have planted it
if I thought it would run. I suspect the palms she had at her place that
'ran' may have been seeds from a palm germinating. or perhaps small bamboo
shoots that looked like small palms at the time they were destroyed.

from qwaht i read it would definately appear they are not realy
referring to golden can palms they simply don't do that maybe confused
with bamboo as ant has suggested.
