A reply: "As I am not a botanist and my way of identification is by observation and comparison .To me the species is *Livistona decipiens. *This is what K S Gopalaswamienger says about this palm,in his book COMPLETE GARDENING IN INDIA( page 551 ) " The leaves of* Livistona decipiens *are fan-shaped with long trailing ends, but are grey-green in colour and create a very soft weeping crown atop the long slender trunk. A hardy and very stately palm which requires ample moisture, good drainage and prefers part shade. Good pot plant. Native of Australia." With regards, Bimal"
