A very attractive and popular species from Vanuatu (New Hebrides) in the Southwest Pacific where it grows in moist forests. It is a very tall palm, with the slender trunk reaching 30 m (100 ft.) tall. It has a spreading crown on top of a slender crownshaft. The leaves are slightly arching and have spreading or slightly drooping leaflets. Veitchia arecina is a robust and extremely fast growing palm and adapts well to most garden situations in the tropics and warm subtropics.
