Description:
-Very
attractive caryota species, loving shade this species does not hold a lot of leaves
4 to 5 only..but does seem to hold more in cultivation than in habitat, the leaves on this species are quit thick and are a little more rounded compared to most of the other Caryota species, Caryota zebrina has a lovely pattern running up the petiole which this species was named after.Ths is a very attractive species that should have a place in every collection or garden.
I have found that this palm needs little attention once established and seems to be quite drought tolerant, although it's not a fast growing species.
A stunning palm for any garden likes a well mulched garden bed and should be planted in a prominent area to appreciate the true beauty of this palm
