Positive palmbob On Jun 14, 2004, palmbob from Tarzana, CA (Zone 9b) wrote:

This is a rare species from the mountains of Maui that is very slow growing and has highly ornamental dwarf species semicircular leaves that are finely but not deeply split and the split parts are pendant, even in short palms. I saw a trio of them in a botanic gardens 3 years ago, and revisited them this year, and they were nearly exactly the same size- about 4' tall, already flowering and fruiting. I don't think this one has been tried in southern California yet, but I hope it's available soon.
