Comments and Curiosities

This is a tillering palm, it exhibits saxophone style root growth (it has a heel), keep top third of heel above soil elevation!

"In my neck of the woods, they are very drought tolerant and do not like full sun. I have two planted out in the garden and many many more in pots. Both planted palms are in bright light. the one that gets more watering looks much better, but the one that gets ZERO water is still alive and should make it to the rainy season no problem. These palms are fairly drought tolerant--I have neard they will burn in full sun( if they survive), which is why I planted them in bright light. Has anyone I've noticed two different forms; one type has regularly arranged leaflets, the other one, which I am growing(and find to be much more visually appealing) has interupted leaflets. The spacing of the second form is a very attractive trait." (Cutler Bay, South Florida. Andrew Street)

Allagoptera caudescens var. Bahia; A form of Buri Palm from Bahia, Brazil with unusually and very neatly and beautifully clustered leaflets, quite different than the form from southeastern Brazil that is commonly found in cultivation. (RPS.com)

  • Allagoptera caudescens var. Bahia. There are two variations: one from Bahia, Brazil, height up to 8 m, and another in southern Brazil. The species name comes from the Latin = caudescens that has a tail, referring to long leaves that spread across the floor, most obvious fact in the second group.
