Astrocaryum jauari
An unusual, clustering, spiny palm from the Amazon rainforest. The FIELD
GUIDE TO THE PALMS OF THE AMERICAS tells us that seedlings can be submerged
for 300 days per year, making them ideal if you're a bit heavy handed
with the watering can, want some different plants for your aquarium, or,
more seriously, live in a very wet, tropical area. The leaflets of this
stunning palm are plumose, giving the look of a Syagrus, but with attitude.
Seeds of this species are very rarely offered, so hurry to secure a batch
for yourself!

appropriate methods, nor are they necessarily valid for all seeds or plants of this species. Germination and plant cultivation
success depends on many different factors; nevertheless, these experiences will hopefully aid you in your effort to get the
best germination results from our seeds and the best growth results from your plants.
