RLP147 Orange Crush Palm ( Dypsis pilulifera )
A robust Dypsis from Madagascar that forms a shuttlecock-crown of long, flat, shiny green leaves with countless, narrow leaflets that have beautiful drooping tips. The sturdy trunk holds a beautiful, tall crownshaft that is bright orange after each leafbase falls and then slowly fades to green. It adapts easily to cultivation in the humid tropical or frost free warm temperate garden. It has been suggested that Dypsis pilulifera is in fact Dypsis pilulifera, a species from humid submontane forest in central and northern Madagascar to nearly 1000 m (3300 feet).
Zone 9b and above.
