I have never seen one in botanical gardens or cultivated or in pots. Do you have one? :interesting:

Such a beautiful habitat!  I would love to visit there.  I've never seen L. inermis either, at least not that i recall.  It looks like a locale with sharply defined wet and dry seasons.  

Land O Lakes FL, a suburb on the North Side of Tampa, FL

Summers are great, 90f/32c in the day & 70f/21c at night with plentiful rain & sun

Winters are subtropical with occasional frosts and freezes. Tropical cyclones happen.

We have a few Royal palms in the warm microclimates but Coconuts freeze.

I am a Kayaker, Hiker, Bicyclist, and amateur Photographer that loves the outdoors.
