Nephrosperma vanhoutteanum

 

A very handsome tropical looking, slow growing palm with a light gray, well armed trunk (at least when young)   growing to about 20 feet at maturity, supporting a crown of elegantly arching divided pinnate leaves. The literature seems to vary considerably on its requirements but it is cold sensitive and we have found it to grow nicely albeit slowly in rich well draining soil in shady or filtered light locations.
