How to Care Bismarckia

Bismarck Palm (Bismarckia nobilis) is a palm species native to Africa. Bismarck Palm grows well in clay soil in full sunlight. This species is often cultivated as an ornamental palm for landscaping.

Palmettos are distinct palms for their fan-like leaves, which originate from a bare petiole. Several species are important food sources for various species of birds and other animals. Many species are relatively cold-hardy, meaning they can be planted as ornamentals farther north than other palms.

The genus rhapidophyllum includes only one species. The needle palm of rhapidophyllum assumes a shrublike clumping form with several stems growing from a single base, the stems growing very slowly and tightly together, eventually forming a dense base, with numerous sharp needle-like spines produced between the leaves. The whole plant can reach 2 to 3 m tall to the top of the erect central leaves. It is a fan palm with the leaves with a long petiole terminating in a rounded fan of 8–16 leaflets. The flowers are borne in dense, short clusters at the top of the stems; it is usually dioecious with male and female flowers on separate plants. The fruit is a brown drupe. It is native to coastal margins of the subtropical eastern Gulf and south Atlantic states of the United States. Endemic populations can be found from America.

Gebang palms is a genus of palms (family Arecaceae), native to India, Malaysia, Indonesia, the Philippines, New Guinea and northeastern Australia. The leaves have a long petiole terminating in a rounded fan of numerous leaflets. All are large palms with leaves ranging from 2 to 5 m in length. They reach heights of 20 to 40 m and with a trunk diameter of up to 1 to 2.5 m.

Attalea is a large genus of palms native to Mexico, the Caribbean, Central and South America. Between 29 and 67 species are recognised in the genus, with estimates of as many as 100. Attalea is a genus of non-spiny palms with pinnately compound leaves—rows of leaflets emerge on either side of the axis of the leaf in a feather-like or fern-like pattern. Species range from large trees with stout stems up to 30 m tall to acaulescent palms (ones which lack an aboveground stem). Inflorescences are large, branched and borne among the leaves. Fruit usually have two or three seeds, although fewer or more are present in some species, and are usually brown, yellow, orange-brown or purple when mature.

Johannesteijsmannia is a genus of four species of palms found in tropical rainforests of the Malay Peninsula, Borneo and northern Sumatra. They are fan palms, usually growing without a trunk.

Arenga is a genus of palms, native to Southeast Asia, southern China, New Guinea, and northern Australia. They are small to medium-sized palms, growing to 2 to 20 m tall, with pinnate leaves 2 to 12 m long.

Chambeyronia is a genus of flowering plant in the family Arecaceae. It is endemic to New Caledonia.

Windmill palms are a genus of fan palms. Native to natural forests and wetlands of Asia, these fan palms are often cultivated as ornamental plants. In Asia, they are often used to create rope, furniture, and brushes. Their wax has been used as a polish and in the creation of carbon paper. Larvae also use windmill palms as food.
