One of my favorite Coccothrinax species, these guys stay small and petite for quite a while. Almost maintenance free. A homeowners dream that will take full Arizona sun and is drought tolerant to boot. Would be MUCH more commonly planted if only they weren't so slow to produce.

Here's a pic of one of my mature trees getting ready to flower for the first time. Fingers crossed for viable seeds.🤞😄

Also,one of my trees I grew from seed in a 5 gallon pot.

Quick way to tell the purebreds from hybrids on this species is that the fiber sheath will be almost as long as the emerging spear. Hybrids grow shorter fiber,and cover less than half of the emerging spear.🌴
