Common Name: Quito Coconut Palm; Quito Palm

Parajubaea cocoidesis the first Parajubaea to be grown in California and there are numerous mature specimens throughout the state, both in northern and southern California now. However, the other two species have since overrun this one in terms of popularity and are quite a bit more reliable in terms of not having cultivational troubles and rate of growth. However it is still an excellent palm for California. Its origins are unclear as there haven't been any of these found in the wild.
