This charming palm is chosen because of its ability to put up with less than perfect conditions such as underwatering, and poor soil. Outside in the tropical or subtropical garden it is splendid also, producing bunches of large, bright red or green fruits in December, hence the common name 'Christmas Palm'. Easy to germinate, its popularity is richly deserved.
