Burma, Siam, Cochin China.—Apparently hardy in Fla. It is rare, occurring in only a few gardens. It is a beautiful species, easily recognizable by its trunk which is swollen very much like that of Dasylirion, and according to Nehrling grows much faster than the species more commonly cult. It is certainly deserving of more general cult. ^CH The above text is from the Standard Cyclopedia of Horticulture.
