Types Of Palm Trees<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Palm trees are plants that beautify the gardens and courtyards in a spectacular way<\/strong> . Of the more than 3000 species that are distributed throughout the world, especially in the tropical and temperate regions, there are many, if not many, that have a very high ornamental value.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Therefore, if you want to know more about them, if you would love to discover what types of palm trees there are<\/strong> , you can not miss this special article.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The palm can be classified in two ways: according trunks have and according to the shape of the leaves. Let’s start with the first.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"types<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Classification according to the number of logs<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Unicaul Palm Trees<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The unicaul palms are those that have a single trunk<\/strong> . They are the most common of all, since for obvious reasons they occupy much smaller space than those with several stems. But they have a problem: if the growth guide is damaged, the majority of the time the specimen dies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Some of the most interesting species are:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cocos nucifera <\/em><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

The coconut tree is a palm tree that can be found on the sandy tropical beaches of the Caribbean Sea, Indian Ocean and the Pacific. It reaches an approximate height of 20 meters, with a crown of pinnate leaves up to 3 meters long. The fruit, the coconut, is the largest seed that exists, weighing up to 2kg. It does not resist cold or frost<\/strong> .<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Roystonea regia<\/em><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

The Cuban royal palm is a species native to southern Florida, Belize, Bahamas, Puerto Rico, Cuba, Honduras and some regions of Mexico and the Cayman Islands. It reaches a maximum height of 40 meters, but usually does not exceed 25m. Its leaves are pinnate, with very numerous leaflets and bifid at the apex. The trunk is ringed, smooth and with a diameter of up to 60cm. It can resist up to -2\u00baC whenever it is an adult and acclimatized specimen<\/strong>(young plants can not stand frost).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The feathery coconut , also known as the pind\u00f3 or pind\u00f3 palm, is a plant native to southern Brazil, Paraguay, the Argentinean Litoral, Bolivia and Uruguay that reaches a height of about 25 meters. Its trunk is smooth, ringed, with up to 60cm of basal diameter. The leaves are pinnate, whose lanceolate leaflets are inserted into the spine in different rows and clusters, which is what gives the feathery appearance. Resists frost without problems of up to -8\u00baC<\/strong> .<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Multi-palm trees<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The multicaul palms are those that have several trunks<\/strong> . They are very decorative, but to be able to contemplate them in all their splendor it is necessary to have some space in the garden. Some of the most interesting are:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Chamaerops humilis<\/em><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Known as palmito or margall\u00f3n, it is a native palm tree from the Iberian Peninsula and the Balearic Islands that reaches a height of about 4 meters. The leaves are fan-shaped, and can be green or bluish green depending on the variety. Resists until -10\u00baC.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The red palm is a plant native to Sumatra that has the trunk and rachis of that color. It reaches a height of up to 12 meters, with pinnate leaves 2 meters long. The disadvantage is that to be able to grow it outdoors all year round, it is necessary that the temperature and humidity are high, since it does not withstand cold or dry environments<\/strong> .<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Classification according to the type of leaf<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The leaves of the palm trees can be of several types, which are the following:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pinnate leaf<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The pinnae or leaflets of these palms sprout from the spine outwards<\/strong> . When doing so, it ends with a more or less feathery look. Examples:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Caryota obtusa<\/em><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

It is a native palm from India, Laos and Thailand that reaches a height of up to 40 meters, with bipinnate leaves that can reach up to 4 meters. It has a slow growth rate and can not withstand frost<\/strong> .<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Slapped sheet<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

This type of leaf is known as a fan-shaped blade, since the limb looks like this. The examples are:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
