The main difference with respect to the parent species is its striking leaves, flatter and harder, and with fused leaflets giving them a showy pleated or fan-like appearance.
Habitat: In marshy areas, riverbanks, pine forests, and coastal dunes
Distribution: Southwestern Florida.
Description: Hermaphroditic, solitary trunked, up to 24 meters tall, with an initially rhizomatic and then aerial trunk covered by the remains of the leaves, slighly costapalmate, coriaceous leaves, with fused leaflets of an intense green, of 1.5-2 meters long, white or yellowish flowers and purple fruit.
