Scientific Name: Phoenix reclinata
Common Name: Reclining Palm Tree Seed Bracts
Type of Plant: Palm Tree
The Reclining palm tree has been in the Dougherty Garden for over twenty years. This is the first year that the seed bracst are completely full of seeds. I took a look a week or so ago and didn't see any seeds and figured that was it for this year. Today, when I took this picture was when I noticed the large seed bracts emerging from the top of the palm tree canopy. I'm looking forward to a huge crop of Reclinata palm tree seeds soon.
