This attractive fan palm from the Philippines and Indonesia grows to
80 ft (24 m).
It has spherical scarlet fruit that eventually ripens black and will
grow in moist soil in the tropics.
The seed remains viable for a longer period than most palms, and it
can be grown from seed in a deep container.
Cultivation: Slow growing, they prefer deep, sandy soil and, while
they tolerate full sun, they produce more vigorous, deeper green
foliage in dappled shade.
They make excellent indoor or outdoor container plants.
