Mini Majestic Palm

Ravenea glauca also known as the 'Mini Majestic' palm is endemic to the ravines and canyons of seasonally dry forest in south central Madagascar. The 'glauca' part of its name refers to the glaucous blue appearance of the new leaf growth and the colouring these sometimes retain when grown in a hot, dry location. 

Once mature, they have particularly graceful and delicate looking leaves and have proven to be quite hardy and tolerant of a variety of conditions that would ordinarily be considered less-than-idea; poor soil, wind exposure, drought etc. A fabulous palm deserving of more popularity in this country.
