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.
