Chrysalidocarpus lutescens - Butterfly Palms

I think its worth a try in the bay area but in a very modest size.

They look very good where they are, Andie! :)

Stan,

Chrysalidocarpus baronii, onilahensis and lafazamanga are much better suited for growing up in the SF Bay Area. Chrysalidocarpus lutescens look horrible, and usually will die in winter. I know there’s more species that grow up there, also.

Of course, Chrysalidocarpus (Dypsis) decipiens grow very well there, being the hardiest species.
