===Common Names:===
Australian Fan Palm

===Distribution & Habitat:===
River banks, and swamps of north-east Queensland rainforest.

===Description:===
A very beautiful palm, with a single trunk up to 15 metres,
and large (to 2 metres across) almost circular leaves.
Silhouettes of the leaves against the sky are a very popular image
from the rainforests of north Queensland.

===Culture:===
This is one of the most cold tolerant of the ''Licualas,'' (apart from
''L. spinosa''), but is still a tropical/sub-tropical plant,
and definately not frost hardy. As a youngster it prefers quite heavy shade,
but its an emergent plant so adults are sun-hardy. Unfortunately, it is a
very slow grower, but its still a highly desirable plant for a warm shady nook.
