Rhapidophyllum Hystrix (Needle Palm)
Plant Description
This is a slow growing palm but patience is rewarded by this most unusual palm producing a neat shape of glossy deep green fan shaped leaves.
It should be considered to be a bushy shrub which rarely exceeds 1.5m height and in some ways is similar to Chamaerops humilis in that it is a multi stemmed palm, but unlike Chamaerops, it does not have thorns along its leaf stems.
Mass plantings of this palm can form an impenetrable dense security barrier which makes a wonderful backdrop for flowering plants. Hardy and happy in a wide range of conditions this is a very low maintenance bushy palm which will make a very unusual feature.
