An extremely fast growing, large, clustering palm that sports a robust trunk below a crown of gracefully ascending, deep green, pinnate leaves. Each trunk in a cluster flowers only once and dies after producing thousands of golfball-sized, scaly fruits, only to be quickly replaced by a new sucker. Thought to have originated between Maluku and New Guinea, M. sagu today is widely grown all over South East Asia due to the starchy pith of its trunk, a staple for some indigenous societies, the long lasting thatch that the leaves provide, and other useful material. It is also a great ornamental for the large tropical garden.
