The sabal palmetto is the official state tree of both Florida and South Carolina (the latter is nicknamed "The Palmetto State"). The annual football rivalry game between Clemson and South Carolina is known as the "Palmetto Bowl". A silhouette of S. palmetto appears on the official flag of the US state of South Carolina.
It is one of the largest and most diverse palm genera in the neotropics. Most species are medium-sized spiny palms with clustered stems. Most of the species present in the Caribbean are spiny trees 1 to 10 metres (3 to 33 ft) tall with clustered stems and pinnate leaves; B simplicifrons is smaller (0.5–2 m) and often has simple leaves and no ...
Chamaedorea cataractarum grows to 1 metre (3.3 ft) tall indoors and 2 m (6.6 ft) outdoors, with slender, green, cane-like leaf stems and pinnate leaves. This palm reproduces sexually via seed as well as asexually when new plants sprout from the base of older plants. Flower stalks are either male or female, but both occur in the same group of ...
The needle palm 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 1–1.2 m (3.3–3.9 ft) tall, with numerous sharp needle-like spines produced between the leaves; these are 10–25 cm (3.9–9.8 in) long and protect the stem growing point from browsing animals.
It is a very fast growing palm, and can go from 3 to 15 feet (0.91 to 4.57 m) in just 5 years under the right conditions. During late spring the tree will produce small, fragrant flowers. Once fully matured, it can reach heights of up to 70 feet (21 m) in the wild; however, most do not exceed 40 feet (12 m).

The species was native to numerous states of eastern Mexico but is now confined to the state of Veracruz. [ 1][ 6] Despite its common name, it is not closely related to the true palms ( Arecaceae ).
Those having a tree-like form are called palm trees. [3] Currently, 181 genera with around 2,600 species are known, [ 4 ] [ 5 ] most of which are restricted to tropical and subtropical climates. Most palms are distinguished by their large, compound, evergreen leaves, known as fronds , arranged at the top of an unbranched stem, except for the ...
Growing to 12–20 m (39–66 ft) tall, Trachycarpus fortunei is a single-stemmed fan palm. The diameter of the trunk is up to 15–30 cm (6–12 in). Its texture is very rough, with the persistent leaf bases clasping the stem as layers of coarse fibrous material. The leaves have long petioles which are bare except for two rows of small spines ...
