Evergreen, Fan Palm tree. Tallest of all the Palms. Tan slender, single trunk. Whorled arrangement, bright green above dull green beneath with a tawny patch on the underside of frond where it meets the petiole. Long and slender, single trunk, wider at base.
Dead fronds persist to form a 'skirt'.
Smooth and gray. Low water needs. Accent, right of way, specimen. When dead fronds are pruned, petiole bases leave a distinctive criss-cross pattern along the trunk.
