Spindle / Bottle Palm - Hyophorbe Verscxhaffeltii - 5 Seed Pack - Tropical

Hyophorbe verschaffeltii, the Palmiste Marron, or Spindle Palm is a species of flowering plant in the Arecaceae family. Spindle Palms are elegant looking palms that are prized for landscape palms in the tropical and semi-tropical areas of the world. They are fairly short palms with 8-10 leaves that are held somewhat erect. Spindle palms have a crownshaft that becomes a light grey-green as the palm ages. Horn-like flower spikes emerge from below the crownshaft on mature specimens. Spindle palms are fairly cold intolerant. They are defoliated at 32°F (0°C) and may be killed at anything below that. If the palm does survive a freeze, the next few emerging leaves are stunted. Spindle palms grow in the USA only in south Florida and in isolated favoured microclimates in the Tampa-St. Petersburg-Clearwater area and the Cape Canaveral area of central Florida. They do make good container plants that can be protected from a freeze. Spindle Palms are endemic to Rodrigues island, Mauritius. It is threatened by habitat loss. There are only fifty or so specimens left in the wild, although its survival as a species is guaranteed due to ubiquitous cultivation in tropical areas of the planet.
