Another native of Madasgascar, this is probably one of the most dramatic palms in the Dypsis genus. Reported to be a slow grower, you will not see any trunk on this palm until it is about 10 years old. Has a good degree of cold hardiness, but because of it's slow growth not very popular n the landscape arena yet..

We had hundreds of these in seedling form, but these fell victim to both weeds and our hot Florida sun. i have hope to have new seedlings of this excellent palm growing soon.
