Palms Catalog - Drymophloeus

This genus includes from seven to fifteen, mostly under story, palms coming from areas like New Guinea, the Solomon Islands, and Indonesia. They are characterized by their solitary trunks, feathery leaves, expansive leaflets, and occasional stilt roots. These palms can be seen naturally growing in dense, humid rainforests with protection from wind and sun.

Cultural requirements and other comments: Formerly, D. benguinii, this relatively unique palm from Indonesia has a small, handsome crown with attractive leaflets. This palm grows best where moisture is high and with protection from wind and direct sun. Kona gardens at 1,200+ foot elevation should consider this stilt rooted palm with attractive wide leaflets.
