tall skinny palm plant White Triangle Palm- Dypsis cabadae x decaryi- Our MOST Sought-After H – Seabreeze Nurseries Inc

Description: Cabada Palm (Dypsis cabadae) x Triangle Palm (Dypsis decaryi)

There is an unknown hybrid palm labeled as Dypsis sp. ‘White Triangle’ on the website PACSOA.org.au which is likely where the ‘White Triangle Palm’ first appeared in cultivation. The seed parent is Chrysalidocarpus (Dypsis) cabadae (Cabada Palm) and the pollen parent is Chrysalidocarpus (Dypsis) decaryi (Triangle Palm). Through manual cross-pollination we typically get 1 sellable plant for every in 10,000-15,000 flowers pollinated. We know it has been produced accidentally in the various Australian tree farms growing Dypsis cabadae for the local landscaping trade.  Now, they are only being grown in gardens of those lucky enough to get their hands on them. There are an estimated to be only a few dozen or more in cultivation worldwide, including parks in Australia, private gardens in Southern California, and botanical gardens in Thailand and Australia. The White Triangle Palm should be able to take a few more degrees of cold than the standard Dypsis cabadae (which is restricted to sub-tropical climates such as South Florida, South Texas, and Hawaii).
