Imperial Palm (Roystonea oleracea)
This palm is normally found in forests or open savannah. Requires wet areas ti be able to grow; however, rainfall may limit or prevent the growth of this plant. Additionally, temperature is also a key factor as the palms require a very constant high temperature in order to grow healthy. Lastly, since they are found in the tropics, they also require a good amount of sunlight in order to produce enough energy to sustain themselves. [1]
