"Common" exotics

[Manolitus]

So each part of the world has their community of palm nuts. What would you say is the most "common" exotic that a majority of these folks have in their collections ?

For example, here in Miami, Copernicia might be the genus that's most "common" among collectors, that most would consider "rare."

Here are some others:

Kentiopsis Oliviformis

Kerriodoxa elegans

Teddy Bear

Pely

So tell us where you live, and which one's are the most popular of your exotics..........

Here in Guatemala the most common exotics are Licuala grandis and Dypsis lutescens

Dypsis lutescens

Manilas

Lutescens, everyone has a crowded row of them, to block the view of the neighbors., but

you can't argue with success. The are beyond durable. When I discovered there

were more palms out there than them, thanks to palmtalk etc., I said I would

never plant another for a customer, but they are almost impossible to kill once

established.

Is it true they are almost gone from habitat??
