Dypsis decaryi
Triangle Palm
Dypsis decaryi is a unique palm that is vulnerable in the wild. It has a unique triangular form, pinnate leaves, and yellow green flowers that produce black fruit. Seeds germinate in 1 month, and are apparently edible. It does best in full sun with regular water and good drainage. It shocks easily making it hard to transplant, but once established it is a fast grower, growing 15-20' tall.

What makes our plants so special? Our location on the cliffs of Santa Barbara receives over 280 days of sunshine a year and we utilize our indigenous soil, mixing it with a specialized amendment. Our plants are routinely watered, fertilized, and trimmed. We always aid our plants to proper health when needs arise, and we do so without the use of sprays.
