Trachycarpus fortunei

one of the two young "Windmills" that gifted me with their old fronds for "a land to stand on" and another work still in its early stages. some variants of these palms will grow up to 66'. they are cultivated as far north as Scotland and Alaska. thinking energetically/medicinally it may be effective in insulating from the cold and salt air.

Trachycarpus fortunei (Chusan palm, named after the Chinese island of Chusa) is considered in Chinese medicine to be a mild essential herb with haemostatic and astringent properties. Here in the USA it is commonly called Windmill Palm or Chinese Windmill Palm. In TCM it is referred to as Trachycarpus wagnerianus

Properties Nature Neutral.  Taste Bitter, astringent.  Organ Liver, Large Intestine, Lungs, Spleen.  Toxicity Non toxic. from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trachycarpus_fortunei Trachycarpus fortunei has been cultivated in China and Japan for thousands of years, grown for its coarse but very strong leaf sheath fibre, used for making ropes, sacks, and other coarse cloth where great strength is important. The extent of this cultivation means that the exact natural range of the species is uncertain.
