Coccothrinax argentata

Coccothrinax argentata, 'Silver Palm', gets its common name from the silvery underside of the palmate (hand-shaped) leaves. This Florida native threatened species occurs in pine rockland and coastal habitats in southeast Florida and The Bahamas. It is a very slow-growing plant, so if you hope to have a trunked silver palm in your lifetime (they are beautiful!), you had best plant one soon. Clusters of tiny white flowers attract loads of pollinators, and the purple to black fruit are eaten by birds. Plant in full sun. A Native Plant Network Species! (Pot size: 3 gallon)
