Neutral palmbob On Jun 12, 2004, palmbob from Tarzana, CA (Zone 9b) wrote:

Tall, skinny stemmed sparsely leaved Mexican Chamaedora growing up to 15' tall. Has relatively large, widely spaced leaflets that are a bit leathery and very dark in color. However, with a skinny stem and sparse leaves, this palm tends to get lost in most landscapes.
