Description: Black Triangle Palm (Chrysalidocarpus psammophilus x decaryi; Dypsis psammophila x decaryi)

Back in 2023 we were able to create a small batch of these palms.  In our excitement we potted them up early and used a new soil mixture.  This was a mistake.  All seedlings died a slow, agonizing death and we were discouraged.  Fast forward to 2026 and we finally got another grex to sprout!  So, we are happy to offer these for sale in 2027.  This hybrid should combine the beautiful trunk color of C. psammophilus with the triangular leaf arrangement of C. decaryi, hence the name Black Triangle Palm.  We expect this one to do exceptionally well in SoCal, all of Florida, and possibly TX, AZ, GA.  It should have good drought-tolerance and sun-tolerance!

Sun Requirements: Partial sun when young, full sun once trunking.

Growth Rate: Unknown
