The palm has a thin stem with closely arranged leaf scars, a small compact crown with characteristic orange colour on leaf petioles, inflorescences and nuts. This cultivar was released by CPCRI in 1991 for large scale cultivation in the states of Kerala, Karnataka and Tamil Nadu. High wind areas and drought-prone regions should be avoided. If planted in high wind-prone regions, good shelterbelts should be provided to minimise the damage due to winds.
