  • Description

  • Notes

This palm grows slowly to 25' x 10' . It has long, light green leaves with a waxy cover and small yellow flowers. The tree produces a black fruit that has an edible pulp and tastes similar to dates. Handsome bright green fronds make this an excellent choice for an tropical look. Good choice when a smaller palm is needed. Accepts full sun or parial shade. Native to Mexico.
