Comments: |
Deeply divided leaves give
this fan palm a ribbon-like
appearance. A wonderful specimen palm for small spaces.
The tree is low-maintenance and self-pruning. It does
require regular fertilization and should be protected
from windy areas. Fruit does sprout readily and can be a
nuisance in the landscape. |
