This compact, clumping palm is native to the Brazilian coast, where it thrives in sandy soils and salt spray. It features a subterranean trunk from which arching, pinnate leaves emerge in a unique swirling pattern, displaying bright green tops and silvery undersides. Reaching a modest height, it is perfect for beachside landscaping or as a container plant. It produces small, edible yellowish-green fruits and is highly valued for its extreme salt tolerance and wind resistance.
