It has huge lushly green leaves like any other palm tree.

On whether the seeds of the fruit will also bear forth the same or similar type of plant. The answer was no and this demonstrate the fact that, it may be an accident or one of God’s own ways of doing His works.

However, it was stressed that to keep the plant alive for a longer time, the palm should be fenced and shrubs should be cultivated to protect the roots and the plant. It was advised that a fire belt should be created around the plant and fire should not be anywhere close around the plant.

The fruits of the plant are edible like any other palm tree.
