Cyphophoenix nucele is from Lifou Island, gets to a height of twenty-five to thirty feet and takes strong filtered light or part day sun in most coastal areas. It has a thin trunk with lots of silver color. Leaves tend to be upright as opposed to C. elegans where the leaves are more arched. Estimate of cold tolerance is into the mid to upper twenties F. The 15g on sale are very large for their pots. As mentioned, near impossible to find. Only a few left.
