Alexander - Solitaire Palm 

(Ptychosperma elegans)

 Known for its great tropical foliage and elegant trunks.  The Solitaire Palm is most commonly mistaken for the Christmas Palm.  This palm grows a little bit taller and more slender, therefore allowing it to be used in tighter more constrictive landscaped areas.  It is often grown as a multiple specimen, though the species is solitary in nature.  As a single, solitary palm, the Alexander symbols a tall umbrella and looks great outlining walkways, pool and patios, or any landscape.
