Satake palm (Satakentia liukiuensis)

Description

Especially the plant that was originally described by Sumihiko Hatusima , and that Harold Emery Moore 's exact name is Satakentia liukiuensis. The Satakentia liukiuensis covered kahenera Satakentia the family Arecaceae . Satakentia liukiuensis can survive freezing temperatures to about -3.8°C (25°F), but freezing is best avoided. This species naturally occurs on islands in moist montane forest, and is heavily effected by the surrounding sea temperatures, which are constant and often form sea mist and cloud. In this type of natural environment temperature fluctuations are slight, and this palm prefers a constantly mild climate with little temperature difference between day & night, and Summer & Winter. Under extreme freezing conditions we recommend you keep this palm as dry as possible, and well wrapped up.
