A slim, closely ringed grey trunk carries a long, pale green crownshaft and a crown of about ten deep green, gently arching leaves whose broad leaflets hang down in a single plane.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLarge sprays of whitish flowers appear below the crown, followed by heavy bunches of small, bright red fruits. It grows fast, sheds its old leaves cleanly and is widely planted in tropical gardens such as those of Hawaii and southern Florida.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAt a glance\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNative range:\u003c\/strong\u003e Vanuatu (Malakula, Espíritu Santo, Pentecost and Ambae)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMature size:\u003c\/strong\u003e 8–18 m\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGrowth rate:\u003c\/strong\u003e moderate to fast; begins fruiting at four to six years\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLight:\u003c\/strong\u003e full sun as an adult; part shade or filtered light when young\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWater:\u003c\/strong\u003e keep evenly moist; established trees survive short dry spells\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCold hardiness:\u003c\/strong\u003e about 0 °C for brief light frosts only\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIndoors \/ outdoors:\u003c\/strong\u003e outdoors in tropical gardens, as a specimen, in groups or along avenues; also grown in containers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCare\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlant in deep, freely draining sandy or loamy soil rich in organic matter, slightly acid to slightly alkaline, and keep it evenly moist. Give young plants part shade and older plants full sun. It tolerates salt-laden sea air, so it can be planted near the coast, and as a crownshaft palm it sheds its old leaves on its own. Trees are self-compatible, so a single plant can set fruit. It needs a frost-free climate and struggles where the cool season is long.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy Palmpedia:\u003c\/strong\u003e Every plant is grown in our greenhouse in Almeirim, Portugal, and leaves us in a 15 L to 35 L pot.\u003c\/p\u003e\n","brand":"Palmpedia","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67720292761774,"sku":null,"price":55.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0776\/7877\/2398\/files\/7165_Veitchia-winin_01.jpg?v=1792614601","url":"https:\/\/shop.palmetum.com\/products\/veitchia-winin","provider":"Palmpedia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
