| A
genus of two monoecious pinnate palms from New Guineau,
both very similar looking. The green leaves are an
unusual diamond shape and very thin where attached to
the trunk. |

1. B. drymophoeoides :
Height: 20 feet
Size of crown: 5 feet |
| Cultural requirements and other comments:
This palm luxuriates in shady locations but will
tolerate full sun if not too hot. A very thin trunk and
unusual leaves in an open crown make this an interesting
addition to a garden. |
