About Trachycarpus latisectus
This species is a medium sized, solitary palm. It has a slender gray trunk, with lightly marked rings from leaf scars. It sheds its leaves naturally, leaving a mostly bare trunk. Its crown is topped with light green fan shaped leaves, that are less finely split than other species of the genus. The fruit turns orange to purple as it ripens. This species was first described in the garden of the Windamere Hotel in Darjeeling, India, hence the common name.

Cultivation Tips
Select a location that receives partial shade to full sun. Plant in rich soil that drains well. Water frequently and make sure the roots do not dry out in between waterings. Feed regularly during the growing season with a high quality palm fertilizer. This species is not as cold tolerant as other species of the genus. It is fairly new in cultivation so not many specimens exist outside of it's native range.
