General Description:

A fast growing tropical palm that is similar to Roystonea regia. However, the crown of leaves typically doesn't come past the midline (horizontal or higher plane), whereas R. regia leaves hang down toward the trunk as they age. Leaflets are wider than R. regia.

Further Data:

A great palm if you have the heat and don't really freeze. Roystonea venezuelana may or may not be a separate species. We've found this species to probably have about the same cold hardiness as R. regia.
