The distribution area is small, the numbers of this species are thought to be very low, and the vegetation type is threatened by development and fires. While generally similar to Dypsis lutescens, this critically endangered palm from coastal forest in eastern Madagascar is distinguished by its longer leafstalks, fewer leaflets and much smaller seeds. As adaptable and robust as the well known Golden Cane Palm, it will thrive under the same general conditions.
