Common Name: Ivory Cane Palm

Pinanga coronata is just one of over 90 species of Pinanga that have been described, but easily the most cold hardy of the lot and one of the few that can be grown easily in many of the milder climates in California. Pinangas are among the most colorful and ornamental of the palms, and Pinanga coronata is no exception, though it is not one of the most colorful of the genus. It is a suckering, tropical looking species with variably pinnate leaves

Synonym: Pinanga kuhlii
