| Neutral | lauraroxie | On Mar 19, 2009, lauraroxie from Saint Petersburg, FL wrote: I've got one of these going in 9b st. pete florida. We didnt freeze this year, but it was close and i didnt protect it. So far so good. This is my second year owning the palm and it has produced 3 suckers. (palm is at least 3 years old). |

| Neutral | palmbob | On Oct 15, 2003, palmbob from Tarzana, CA (Zone 9b) wrote: This is a commonly sold plant to palm specialists here in So Cal, sold under a variety of monikers, but all perform poorly unless you happen to live in a good microclimate or in San Diego/Orange County, where some have grown it to maturity (over fifty feet tall). It is a very tough grow for me, and I have had no success with it. Those that have still struggle to make it look good. It's a great plant for tropical areas. There are avenues in Singapore lined for literally miles with this tree. There is a suckering form, and a single trunk form (referred to as 'lucubensis'). The leaves basicall grow in ranks of three (tristichous), sort of like a triangle palm, and the trunk is attractively ringed. Native of Madagascar. |
