My cocothrinax alta is growing in between the sandstone rocks in a gap with quite a deep crevice of sand I have several others all doing well in my garden a tough palm they take a lot of sun a neat easy to grow palm very ornamental the small stature makes it easy to work with in most garden situations

Nice palm!  I believe Coccothrinax alta is an old name (along with Coccothrinax dussiana) which is now Coccothrinax barbadensis.  I prefer alta myself!  :)

I agree I don’t know why they change the names must give them something else to do people ask me how do I remember all the botanical names now with all the name changes it’s even more confusing for my poor brain if I was sold a palm under a certain name I stick with that name
