Butia paraguayensis
Dwarf Yatay Palm

An interesting, rare, dwarf Butia, this palm rarely grows to more than 180 cm (6 ft) tall. It has a short, slender trunk and strongly arching, blue-green leaves, with the leaflets held in a V-shape. This dwarf Butia is most useful as an ornamental palm in the temperate and subtropical garden where it will tolerate summer heat and extreme cold. We can now, for the first time, offer commercial quantities of these rare seeds from the Campos of southern Brazil at a VERY LOW PRICE.
