I've taken some pictures of Geonoma schottiana during a bushwalk in the Tijuca National Park, in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.

Geonoma schottiana is a native palm in my high altitude (1000- 1200m)region in suptropical southern Brazil It loves cool wet conditions. But this provenance from Tijuca could be less demanding and grow in warmer climates.

Carambeí, 2nd tableland of the State Paraná , south Brazil.

Alt:1030m. Native palms: Queen, B. eriospatha, B. microspadix, Allagoptera leucocalyx , A.campestris, Geonoma schottiana, Trithrinax acanthocoma. Subtr. climate, some frosty nights. No dry season. August: driest month. Rain:1700mm

 

I am seeking for cold hardy palms!

There are thousands of individuals in the Tijuca Forest. Everywhere you look, there they are!
