Coccothrinax saxicola

This elegant and diminutive palm exhibits a slender, solitary stem, with a delicate fibrous texture. Its small, round seeds develop from compact clusters of golden inflorescences, and its graceful, deeply divided leaves showcase a striking contrast between the glossy green upper surface and silvery lower surface. Native only to the rugged limestone cliffs of southeastern Cuba, with limited reproductive populations remaining in the wild. A true gem for any serious palm collector, this species is both a testament to nature’s resilience and a distinctive addition to any collection.
