Apparently the diameter of the leaves are around 12 ft wide. But the trunk is much, much smaller in diameter (6 inches). Is this true?

I'd say a 12 ft. leaf span with a trunk about 6-10" in diameter. Here's a photo of my 3 year old youngster taken in Sept. 2009. She's grown a bit more during the last 3 months but this is the most recent photo I have available this evening. She would probably be much taller, but last year she had to recover first from a transplant followed by a 6 week drought and then a 3 day tropical storm. She lost most of her fronds and looked sickly for several months but she's better now.
