===Common Names:===
Coco Cumbe (local name),<br/>
Quito palm<br/>

===Distribution & Habitat:===
Only found in cultivation in dry, humid,
high altitude valleys of the Andes thru Ecuador, Bolivia and Colombia.
so is probably a cultivated variant of ''P. totallyi''.

===Description:===
Large, solitary, pinnate palm, to about 10m tall,
with a very hairy trunk, and long drooping leaves,
quite similar to a coconut palm (''Cocos nucifera'').
The leaflets are dark green with a white underside.

===Culture:===
Sunny, well drained position.
Prefers a frost free, temperate climate but will take
frost, but dislikes high temperatures.
Much slower growing than its brother, ''P. torallyi''.
Good for getting a tropical feel in cooler areas.
Grows well in California, up to San Francisco.
