{{Inc| Nenga (Malayan name). Palmaceae. A few graceful spineless feather-leaved Malayan palms, one of which is cultivated as Areca pumila. In Areca, the ovule is erect and fastened at the base, while Nenga belongs to a large group in which the ovule is attached on the side and more or less pendulous. Nenga is distinguished from the 5 cult. genera of this group (which are listed under Hedyscepe) by the following characteristics: staminate fls. with narrow sepals much surpassing the petals; stamens 6; anthers erect. Trunks erect, slender, ringed: lvs. terminal, equally pinnatisect; segms. linear, acuminate or obliquely 2-fid or 3-fid; margins folded back at the base; primary nerves sparsely scaly below; rachis 3-sided; petiole short; sheath cylindrical, strongly oblique at the throat: spadix with a short peduncle and slender pendent branches; spathes 2, the lower symmetrical, lanceolate, folded, 2-crested, the upper unsymmetrical, persistent, or lacking: bracts 3-fld.; bractlets scaly: fls. white: fr. ellipsoidal, smooth, reddish orange. Cult. as in Kentia. }} ==Cultivation== ===Propagation=== ===Pests and diseases=== ==Varieties== ==Gallery== <gallery perrow=5> Image:Upload.png| photo 1 Image:Upload.png| photo 2 Image:Upload.png| photo 3 </gallery> ==References== <references/> *[[Standard Cyclopedia of Horticulture]], by L.
