Habitat and Distribution
Hyophorbe indica is endemic to La Reunion Island in the Mascarene Islands east of Madagascar.
Description
A solitary, medium-size crownshafted palm with the southern variety having distinctive rusty-red color to the crownshaft; there is also a more common green form from the eastern side of the island. Unlike H. lagenicaulis or verschaffeltii, it does not exhibit any bulging of the trunk.
Culture
As with many palms, seedlings prefer shade, but as the palm matures it can take more sun, even full sun in coastal conditions. Cold Hardiness Zone: 10a
Comments and Curiosities
(Southern var.) An exceedingly rare relative of the well known Bottle and Spindle palms from the Mascarene Islands this species has a much more slender appearance and is very fast growing. The more cold tolerant southern populations on Réunion with red petioles. (Eastern var.) This form comes from populations on the eastern side of Réunion Island, which have green petioles and are incredibly fast growing. Said to be less cold hady, but I find no difference
