Very unique Ravenea - Ravenea sp. 'Cycadifolia'. Very fuzzy leaf bases and it holds many leaves.

What a cool Ravenea. How long have you had it and where did it come from? I tried seeds of this one from RPS years ago but none germinated. I haven't seen it since.

I got it from a friend 2 years ago. It has grown a lot in those two years.
