Florida Cherry-palm

Pseudophoenix sargentii

This species is endangered in Florida. Please acquire only through reputable nurserymen. To maintain the genetic integrity of the species, please use only local (Florida) stock (the species also grows in the Caribbean). This species was almost eliminated from its Florida Keys natural populations by a combination of theft, vandalism, habitat destruction, and Hurricane Andrew. Specimen plant. The smooth old leaf bases give this palm an elegant tropical look. Good salt and wind tolerance make this a good choice for somewhat sheltered coastal settings.
