Copernicia fallaensis in habitat group. THis stand is constantly having leaves harvested and the robustness of the palms is greatly effected. Notice the first photo, this one has never had its leaves harvested.

A Hyphaene sp. No one was sure what it was its either compressa or thebiaca. Unfortunately there were only male plants at this garden. This was planted in 1905. Very cool palm
