==Habitat and Distribution==
''Clinostigma harlandii'' is endemic to the ridge crests, and slopes of Vanuatu, from the islands of Vanua Lava, Espiritu Santo,
Ambae, Ambrym, Pentecost, Efate, Erromango, and Aneityum, from sea level to over 1,500m. Becoming more common in the upper altitude of its range.

==Description==
Trunk type: Solitary. Hight: To about 15 meters, (50'). Leaf detail: Pinnately compound, with fine leaflets, and drooping leaflets. Crownshaft to 1.4 meters tall, (4.60') covered with a whitish wax. Editing by edric.
==Culture==
Requirements: Filtered light when young, full sun when mature, consistently moist soil, lots of water. This is a very fast growing palm, and a highly desirable plant for tropical/ warm sub-tropical gardens. well drained position.
==Comments and Curiosities==
Clinostigma are doubtlessly some of the world's most graceful palms, and C. harlandii from cloud forests at 1000 m (3300 ft) on Vanuatu in the Southwest Pacific is no exception. It grows a tall, slender, smooth, waxy trunk, supported by a cone of stilt roots, and topped by a long, dark green, waxy crownshaft and an elegant crown of feathery, arching leaves. It is an aggressively fast grower, does well in the humid tropical or subtropical garden, and is one of the few in the genus that will tolerate cooler temperatures (but no frost). (RPS.com). On Ambrym Island the local people eat this species. The 'heart' (immature leaves within the bulbous area at top of trunk) is eaten. It is quite sweet and tastes a bit like a cross between French beans and asparagus. Unfortunately the extraction of the 'heart' kills the tree.

Rhindmarsh-walls_blocked_old: Added to distribution (Ambae, Ambrym). I saw it on these islands. Changed a few things in habitat and distribution that were incorrect. Common name added. Added some comments at the end of comments and curiosities section.
