Habitat and Distribution

Hispaniola

Description

Solitary fan leaved palms up to 25 feet tall with an 8" diameter trunk covered in a woven thatch of fibers. Fan leaves are 5 feet wide and form a beautiful circular shape with the leaflet segments being divided almost all the way to the hastula. Leaflets are rigid when young and only slightly pendent when older, the undersides showing a silver coating.

Culture

Requires full sun and a well drained soil. Does not mind drying out between waterings once established.
