Very common palms were used quite a lot basically the only potted plant to be used for patio displays they know a tough cold hardy dry tolerant plant selectively choosing only palms as the best candidate for survival in the conditions I guess once again survival of the fittest in India

Looks like a trachycarpus latisectus (the fan palms).

Those are some tough guys! It looks like full sun with some surrounding reflective surfaces . Hopefully some afternoon shade for them . Harry

Actually, I just noticed the armed petioles. So that's not a Latisectus!

The big leafed fan palm looks like Livistona chinensis in pics 1 and 4.

The one in picture no 5 looks like a Rhapis.

I had expected more tropical/ sub tropical species to be honest. I was only there for such a short time and spent all of it in the hotel room (too hot and stinky) so didn't get to view any of the local flora.

Yes a lot of chinensis phoenix roebelenii golden cane rhapis Cham sefritzii and a majesty palm the basic die hard varieties only in India in the Punjab the climate is so harsh there and I think they have other priorities other than palms but still I was surprised to see a market there for palms

Hi peachy I think down south of the Punjab is a lot more tropical look the plains of the Punjab are a very exstreme environment for such tropical beauties with temperatures reaching 48 degrees Celsius and lows as -3 degrees Celsius I can’t see a MAPU palm going to well there it was the end of winter when I visited so temperatures around 28 degrees Celsius in the daytime made for a comfortable visit
