Caryota mitis
Family: Arecaceae / Palmae
Fish Tail
Origin: S-E Asia, Australia, Solomon Islands
The best-known and perhaps prettiest of the genus, this is a clustering species with leaflets shaped like fishes tails. It is tolerant of low light, and requires lots of water at all times of the year. This, together with an occasional feed, will ensure its good health. Good interior palm.
