Caryota no

Caryota no at The Royal Botanic Gardens Kew, England - July 2007 General Information Family: Arecaceae Common Names: Giant Fistail Palm Synonyms: Caryota rumphiana var. More

My Caryota no is presently about thirty feet tall. I am growing an unnamed dwarf suckering species from Southern Thailand (similar to C. monostachya or sympetala ) that seems to tolerate down to the low thirties. Caryota ophiopellis and zebrina seem to prefer more tropical temperatures, but possibly can be grown here. Seedlings are sensitive to damping off. Perhaps larger plants put into the garden will do better. They both have interesting banding on the petiole and rachis and are worth the try. More
