Description
Sabal Causiarum is native to Hispaniola, Puerto Rico and the British Virgin Islands. The common name Puerto Rican Hat Palm refers to a use of its leaves in weaving hats and other useful products. Sabal Causiarum is one of the most striking of the Sabal species, distinguishable from other Sabals by the massive fat trunks. Trunks can grow as big as 4 feet in diameter; leaves are deep green with a blue-green tinge and costapalmate. The costapalmate leaves of the S. Causiarum are usually 6 feet wide and 6 feet long, are deeply divided and droop at the tips. Costapalmate means that the petiole (leaf stem) extends through the center of the palmate leaf. Flowers are usually white to cream in color.
The Sabal Causiarum is an easy to grow, impressive palm that is salt tolerant and drought tolerant, even at a young age, also responds well to moisture.
