The mountain top on which it grows is often enveloped in cloud. ===Description:=== It is a small/medium sized pinnate palm with a short green-brown crownshaft but it does possess a strikingly attractive fructescence. ===Culture:=== Renowned for its difficulty in cultivation, mainly because it comes from a very specialised and difficult to recreate envinronment (very cool and humid). </div> </div> <div class="row"> <div class="small-0 large-6 columns"> [[File:Lepidorrhachis_mooreana02.jpg|frame|Figure 2.
