''J. caffra'' in the Sydney Royal Botanic Gardens.]] </div> <div class="small-0 large-7 columns"> ===Common Names:=== Pondoland Palm<br/> Kaffir Palm<br/> ===Distribution & Habitat:=== Exposed coastal hillsides of Pondoland, South Africa, and around the lower reaches of the Mtentu, Msikaba, and Mzintlava rivers. ===Description:=== A clumping, pinnate leaved palm to about 5m tall, with the leaves being arranged in five ranks. ===General:=== A relative of the coconut, as well as ''Jubaea chilensis'' (hence the name). ===Culture:=== Like a sunny, well drained position, with ground water. Very slow growing. Seeds are difficult to germinate, although more success is being gained by just covering the seeds with moist sphagnum moss. ===Reference: === '''Palms Throughout The World''', David Jones. </div> </div> <div class="row"> <div class="small-0 large-6 columns"> [[File:Jubaeopsis_caffra02.jpg|frame|Figure 2.
