I´d love to have a tropical climate and a swampy place to plant the iconic brazilian palm "buriti' (Mauritia fleuxuosa), and also others that grow in wet spots like the buritiranas (Mauritiella aculeata)

The carandá (Copernicia alba) grows in very wet and flooded places in the region of the Pantanal Matogrossense' This is another beautifull palm that will grow fine there

the "bacuri" Attalea phalerata also like it wet.

Excellent specimens. Thanks.
