===Common Names:===
Pinang Palm<br/>

===Distribution & Habitat:===
Naturally found throughout the open forest of the Philippines.

===Description:===
The tallest species in the Pinanga family, this solitary palm can grow to heights over 30 feet (10 metres) tall.
The trunk is a glossy dark green with light brown leaf scares, leading up to the bright purple crownshaft.
The purple crown and the green trunk give this palm a nice color contrast.
The crown consists of 6-10 long evenly arranged green pinnate leaves.
The seeds turn bright red once ripe, adding even more color to this palm.

===Cultivation:===
This palm enjoys a sunny, moist area where it can get a good helping of full sun during the day.
It is a water lover, and should be watered regularly to insure it will not dry out.
This palm is cold sensitive and should be kept in Zones 10-11 (Tropical/warm sub-tropical).
Any temperatures under the mid 30"s F (3&#176;C) will cause serious damage.
Seedlings prefer a moist shady area where they will get watered every day.
