Triangle Palm (Dypsis decaryi) Fresh Seeds
x10 Seeds
Dypsis decaryi is an excellent landscape choice for many areas, both inland and coastal. It is a uniquely shaped palm that makes an excellent landscape tree for xeriscaping and multiple plantings (particularly in a row). There are several Dypsis that are somewhat tristichous (leaves in three ranks), this palm is precisely so, and a beautiful palm at that. This is also one of the only Dypsis that performs well in the inland low deserts. Despite is seemingly ubiquitous presence throughout much of the southern half of California, it is a relatively marginal palms in many areas of California where many other palms grow easily. It does not like cold weather. Though seemingly perfectly adapted to a warm, dry, Mediterranean climate, it also does very well in Hawaiian volcanic soils and extremely high rainfalls.
