A tall and striking palm from the humid east of Madagascar where it grows in humid forests at low and high elevations. Its stocky trunk can reach 30 m (98 ft.) tall and supports a large, shuttlecock-like crown. In its native habitat it is widespread but by no means common, and endangered through cutting for palm heart and building materials. Still rare in cultivation, R. robustior will adapt to mild subtropical and tropical climates.
