GREEN LEAVES – NO SPINES
MEDIUM SIZED MATURE
I enjoy talking about this species because it is one of my favorites. It is a large species over time. I say ‘user friendly” because this is one of the few species that has absolutely no spines; none of the leaflets, none one the stems. A leaf brushing across your face feels no more intense than brushing past a Maiden Hair Fern. We have a huge selection of this species. I am going to show you an assortment of plants. Below are a few of the main characteristics of this species:
*Large species with trunks slowly getting to over ten feet
*Leaf length typically six to eight feet, sometimes bigger.
*Trunk diameter to 18 inches
*Smooth petiole with no spines
*Great for strong filtered light or full sun along the coast
*Large interesting cones
*Leaflets soft and glossy green in color
*New leaves emerge upward, older leaves lay more horizontal
*Easy to grow
I’ve found that even customers who say “I only like palms, not cycads” tend to love this species.
The plant size on special are our band sized seedlings. Most have about three leaves presently, bigger than shown below. These bands can be shipped. I am also showing some garden specimens.
