This lovely palm typically grows with three or four of its slim trunks towering above the rest of the clump. Small, neat, fan-shaped leaves atop chestnut brown stems gives it an attractive appearance. Requires acidic soil for best color, and an abundance of water. Very adaptable; suited to tropical as well as temperate climates and can take some frost. |
