Dictyosperma album var.conjugatum
' Round Island Hurricane Palm '
[ Palmae ]
[ Round Island ]
The smallest of the three varieties of Dictyosperma is native only to tiny Round Island in the Indian Ocean. It has a short, stout trunk and a prominent, pale crownshaft. The arching leaves form a dense, full crown. The tips of the leaflets are joined together by almost persistent reins running along the edge of the leaf and making this variety immediately recognizable. It grows steadily given a sunny position and adequate water and feed, and will succeed in tropical, subtropical, and some warm temperate areas. The Round Island Hurricane Palm can also take considerable coastal exposure.
