Ptychosperma elegans is an Australian native palm that has a single long, slender trunk, atop of which stands a tuft of long dark green palm leaves (fronds).
Scented, greenish white flowers are borne in summer and bright red fruits follow these.
The tall, thin habit makes this an excellent habit contrast or silhouette tree.
Best suited to tropical climes, in the southern states it's mainly used as an indoor or patio plant.
