CAN BE GROWN IN SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA
RARE SPECIES – SELDOM SEE FOR SALE
We have a limited number of this fairly rare species that is difficult to find. This is a single trunk, crown shafted pinnate palm native to Vanuatu, Fiji and Tonga. In the wild, plants get to over 75 feet tall. In So California it is more typical to see one to 30 to 40 feet. They have a light colored crown shaft, speckled dark or black color near the inner crown area and sometimes on the leaf stems. Leaves are six to eight feet long and leaflet tips are pointed or slightly blunted. The trunk is narrow for a tall palm.
Shown here are one gallon single plants this species which we’re putting on special. There are quite a few people who are growing this species in the coastal strip in our area. This size is shown in the photos below. The 7th photo is a double 25 gallon size which we also have.
