Syagrus romanzoffiana (syn. Cocos plumosa, Hook. and Cocos Romanzoffiana, Cham.) St. 30-36 ft. high, 10-12 in. thick, ringed at intervals of a foot, clothed near the apex with remnants of the dead petioles: Lvs. erect-spreading, 12-15 ft. long, recurving; petiole a third to half as long as the blade; segms. linear-acuminate, sparse, solitary or mostly in groups of 2-4, 1½ ft. long, deflexed near the apex: spadix usually 3 ft. long and much branched, the branchlets pendular. Cent. Brazil. B.M. 5180.—The chief avenue palm of the genus. A quick grower, ultimately 50 ft. high in S. Fla. and Calif. The slender smooth lobes and heads of graceful recurving Lvs. make this a very attractive tree.

Syagrus romanzoffiana (syn. Cocos plumosa, Hook. and Cocos Romanzoffiana, Cham.) St. 30-36 ft. high, 10-12 in. thick, ringed at intervals of a foot, clothed near the apex with remnants of the dead petioles: Lvs. erect-spreading, 12-15 ft. long, recurving; petiole a third to half as long as the blade; segms. linear-acuminate, sparse, solitary or mostly in groups of 2-4, 1½ ft. long, deflexed near the apex: spadix usually 3 ft. long and much branched, the branchlets pendular. Cent. Brazil. B.M. 5180.—The chief avenue palm of the genus. A quick grower, ultimately 50 ft. high in S. Fla. and Calif. The slender smooth lobes and heads of graceful recurving Lvs. make this a very attractive tree. CH

Possibly conflicting info: Sts. 30-40 ft. high, somewhat fusiform above: Lvs. about half as long as the caudex, the withered ones deflexed, pendent, the upper spreading, often arching; segms. conduplicate at the base, ensiform: spadix about 6 ft. long, at first inclosed in a stout pendulous spathe which appears among the lowest Lvs. S.
