Coccothrinax hioramii is een soort bloeiende plant uit de palmenfamilie (Arecaceae). Hij komt voor in oostelijk Cuba, in open zandige kustgebieden. Net als andere leden van het geslacht is C. hioramii een waaierpalm. De bomen zijn eenstammig, tussen de 6 en 12 meter hoog met stengels van 7 tot 15 centimeter in diameter. De vrucht is zwart, 0,9–1,1 cm in diameter.

This pretty Palm with fanlike (=Thrinax/flabellate) fronds is not marked in the Three-Climate House of the Hortus. But on the fine website it's called a Coccothrinax sp. Though no expert in Palms, I'm not entirely convinced. I think it's more specifically rather a Thrinax radiata which has sometimes in a dimmer past been called a Thrinax aurantia; 'aurantia' for orange-colored.
Although these Silver Palms were planted along this road in Bahia Honda State Park, there is a natural stand of the Silver Palms near Sandspur Beach on this tiny island. Or maybe these four are Thrinax radiata, the Florida Thatch Palm. I need to plan another trip so I can take a closer look. (October 2014--I did take another look and these are Thatch Palms, not Silver Palms.)
La Cigua palmera, palmchat (Dulus dominicus)

Haciéndole honor a su nombre, en una palma del género Coccothrinax.
En 1760, el zoólogo francés Mathurin Jacques Brisson incluyó una descripción de la palmera en su Ornitología basada en un espécimen recolectado en la colonia francesa de Saint-Domingue, el moderno Haití. Utilizó el nombre francés Le tangara de S. Dominigue y el latín Tangara Dominicensis.

Living up to its name, in a palm of the genus Coccothrinax.
The palmchat (Dulus dominicus) is a small, long-tailed passerine bird, the only species in the genus Dulus and the family Dulidae
In 1760 the French zoologist Mathurin Jacques Brisson included a description of the palmchat in his Ornithologie based on a specimen collected from the French colony of Saint-Domingue, modern Haiti. He used the French name Le tangara de S. Dominigue and the Latin Tangara Dominicensis.
The palmchat is the national bird of the Dominican Republic.
The species is endemic to the island of Hispaniola (politically divided between the Dominican Republic and Haiti), including the adjacent Saona and Gonâve Islands, where it is common and widespread. It inhabits areas from sea-level to 1500 m asl where palm savannas can be found, or other open areas with scattered trees.

Los angelitos son semillas de miraguano ("Coccothrinax miraguama").
Le puse un montón de semillas encima de mi cama y dejé que jugara con lo que vulgarmente llamanos "angelitos". Mi colcha, después, parecía una estola de armiño, un paisaje nevado cuyas montañas y valles estaban sembrados casi completamente... Mira que si llegan a germinar... :-)
Les petits anges sont des semences de Miraguano ("Coccothrinax miraguama").
Je lui ai mis un tas de semences sur mon lit et je lui ai laissé jouer avec ce que nous appelons "petits anges". Mon couvre-lit, après, se ressemblait à une étole d'hermine, à un paysage neigé dont ses montaignes et vallées étaient presque entièrement semmées... Aiaiai si elles arrivent à germer... :-)

This palm had remained tiny for around 5-6 years; now, it's growing rapidly and beginning to develop a trunk.

The rare Coccothrinax crinita, or Old Man Palm is native and endemic to Cuba, meaning it is a species that evolved on this Caribbean island and is not found anywhere else in the world in native habitat. It usually grows in seasonally flooded savannah up to 500m, occasionally in grasslands and hilly areas. This palm can withstand temperatures as low as 20 degrees Fahrenheit when mature and sheds its oldest thatch in windy conditions.
The Old Man Palm is now critically endangered with only 60 – 130 trees left on its native location.
