GREEN LEAVES, THIN TRUNK, TOLERATES COASTAL SUN
This Madagascar palm gets to about twenty feet, perhaps somewhat taller and has a thin trunk of six inches. I would consider it a medium sized palm; the crown is not that large. It is a very good growing palm and along the coast loves full sun. Cold hardiness is somewhere in the mid-twenties F., perhaps a bit less. It is as good growing pinnate palm. Presently they are near impossible to find for sale. We have a limited number of nice one gallon – and on Special. All have seen winter cold for several years. As I’ve published previously, get your Ravenea now as they’ll all be unavailable in the near future. We have limited numbers available and, in the spring, they’ll all be put into 5 gallon containers. The last superb photo is c/o PalmPedia.
