Dypsis Lutescens: Areca Palm/ Butterfly palm Also known as the Golden Cane Palm, Areca Palm and Yellow Palm, Dypsis Lutescens is a species of flowering palm native to Madagascar. It has become naturalized in tropical locations worldwide, including El Salvador, Puerto Rico, Cuba, Haiti, and Southern Florida. It can grow between 20-40 ft in height, and bears yellow flowers in the summer. It is grown as an ornamental plant in tropical regions, and elsewhere as a houseplant. One of several common names, butterfly palm, refers to the leaves which curve upwards in multiple stems to create a butterfly look. In its introduced range, this plant acts as a supplier of fruit to some bird species which feed on it opportunistically.
