This magnificent palm is endemic to the Wet Tropical Rainforest of North Queensland. The great, circular fan leaves are really outstanding, consisting of a windmill effect of wedge-shaped segments joined together. The leaflet tips are jagged-edged right around the entire leaf shape. "Chakoro" is it's aboriginal name.          Silhouettes of the leaves against the sky are a very popular image from the rainforests of north Queensland. Australian Fan Palm is a solitary species. This is a very slow grower, but Licuala ramsayi is still a highly desirable plant for a warm shady nook.    In tropical climates, it's a much faster palm, and one of the best for landscaping, with its nearly circular leaves irregularly split.
Queensland Fan Palm    This palm grows well in the garden as long as it is moist, semi-shaded and protected from strong wind. It also does very well in pot on patios and indoors.     Slow growing outside the tropics, so it will be many decades before any attain the heights as seen in Hawaii. Australian Fan Palm also is one of the few Licualas that don't have viscous teeth along the petioles. As a youngster it prefers quite heavy shade, but its an emergent plant so adults are sun-hardy.
Of the tribe Arecceae, it is also known by the botanic name Licuala ramsayi
A very beautiful palm, with a single trunk up to 45 feet, and large (to 6 feet across) almost circular leaves, is one of the few Licuala that can do well in So Cal  coastal areas.            This is one of the most cold tolerant of the Licualas, but is still a tropical/sub-tropical plant, and definitely not frost hardy.   Height: 30-40 ft. (9-12 m) Hardiness: USDA Zone 9b: to -3.8 °C (25 °F) Sun Exposure: Partial to Full Shade

Cash payment can not be sent through the mail.       Please only one Paypal payment. SO THE COMBINED SHIPPING RULE WILL CAN BE USED. Multiple paypal payments are NOT eligible for discounts.         We will ship once a week - ON or BEFORE WEDNESDAYS, because of the special stamps needed to ship plants and cuttings to you.  This can only be done at the Dept. of Agriculture.  If payments are not met before that MONDAY, your items will be shipped the following week and lose the combined discount opportunity.          Non-paying bidders may receive negative feedback and will be reported as an unpaid item to eBay.   COMBINED SHIPPING POLICY INTERNATIONAL SHIPPING is not included in this offer.   See INTERNATIONAL SHIPPING ON LIVE PLANTS         We will combine shipping for auctions won on the same week paid with same paypal payment.    This policy is good for all items bought and paid for in the week ending MONDAY. Payment must be received within 7 days of the auction ending. Combined Discounts Won Auctions      For 2-3 winning auctions, the combined discount is 10% of the total Shipping and Handling charges. For 4-7 winning auctions, the combined discount is 20% of the total Shipping and Handling charges. For 7+ winning auctions, the combined discount is 30% of the total Shipping and Handling charges.          As each order is packed and prepared separately you will pay the quoted S/H charges individually per item. If you buy the same species in that item it does calculate out the discount (i.e.: additional item $3.61). My stores' combined shipping is built in for same items rather than a varied selection. Includes postage, USDA certification and inspection, proper packing and delivery to Airport for prompt delivery. I can’t really change any of these. If you want one of this and one of that, it gets hard to discount much as each different species requires it's own prep & packing, then at USDA each has to be unwrapped and inspected then repacked. USDA requires me to clean and prepare every last piece before we drive them to the Inspection Station on the other side of the island. It takes my wife and I, a day to pack items and get ready to ship. The whole next day we drive around the island and get inspected (2-3 hours), then drive to the Airport Post Office to drop off. It takes the same work with the same type item if you can understand.
