Abstract
[Extract] The aim of this paper is to report on the first palm to have become semi-naturalized in South Africa, namely Livistona chinensis (Jacq.) R.Br. ex Mart. This palm is also considered as naturalized in some parts of the United States of America (Butts 1959; Oppenheimer 2003) and Mauritius (Maunder et al. 2002). The palm was introduced to South Africa as an ornamental during the early 1900s and has hitherto been widely planted throughout the eastern coastal regions of South Africa due to its availability, vigour and hardiness (Esterhuyse et al. 2001).
