Wild palms on the island of Grenada - Roystonea, Acrocomia,

[kylecawazafla]

Some coconut palms along a remote black sand beach on the Caribbean side of Grenada.

Some Acrocomia aculeata growing along the mountainside. Many of these grow along the riparian zone.

Can you spot the Acrocomia?

Beautiful Roystonea oleracea

An exceptionally tall coconut palm growing at about 1000 ft elevation.

Not a palm, but a beautiful Kapok tree towering over the other trees.

Also not a palm, but a beautiful jungle scene:

Awesome photos, thanks for sharing! Love the Acrocomia and coconut growing in a wet environment! Bananas look great as well in the forest.

No imitation for a true wet tropical environment
