I planted this triangle palm 20 years ago in one of the toughest spot you can get in my garden in between sandstone rocks very similar to there habitat in Madagascar growing strong enduring many hot dry days along with the wet seasons it’s one tough palm the triangle I have never watered it the soil never got amended when it was planted it just had to tough it out and that it has

That is nice. I have a couple that are about 25 years old and just a very unique addition to the garden. Over here they were fairly uncommon back then , now I see more of them but still a great palm. The purple or maroon fuzz on the leaf bases with the silvery arching fronds ….what’s not to like. I leave the “strings” from the fronds hanging down for added effect. Disneyland has some very mature specimens , one that had seed last time I was there. Harry

📐 palms are quite unique. Nobody is ever confused as to species when they see one.

They where some of the first new palms to be introduced from Madagascar becoming popular in the 90s you see some nice ones in council parks and gardens they do look good in the middle of a nice flower bed or bromeliads in a round garden bed
