St. or rhizome prostrate, several feet long, branched: lvs. rigid, plicate, with whitish powder, the segms. curved and 2-lobed, the petiole unarmed (and thereby distinguished from Chamaerops humilis) : spadix much branched: spathes tubular and sheathing: fls. polygamous; corolla 3-parted; stamens 6-9: fr. a small globose or oblong 1-seeded drupe the size of a grape.
