Satakentia — 1 species

Cultivation

Satakentia liukiuensis is native to the tropical and subtropical climate in the islands of southern Japan. It occurs naturally 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 and night, or between summer and winter.
