下级分类：蒲葵Livistona chinensis (Jacq.) R. Br.
大果蒲葵Livistona cochinchinensis Mart.
大叶蒲葵Livistona saribus (Lour.) Merr. ex A. Chev.
美丽蒲葵Livistona speciosa Kurz[2]
形态特征：
乔木
叶：大，阔肾状扇形或几圆形，扇状折叠，辐射状（或掌状）分裂成许多具单折或单肋脉（罕为多折）的裂片，裂片先端具2浅裂或2深裂
花：小，两性，为具长柄、分枝的圆锥花序由叶丛中抽出；
佛焰苞多数，管状；
花萼和花瓣3裂几达基部；
雄蕊6，花药心形；
子房由3个近离生的心皮所成，花柱短；
胚珠单生，基生
果：果熟期10～12月
果为一球形或长椭圆形的核果
通常由1个心皮形成，球形卵球形或椭圆形，柱头残留于顶部，果皮平滑。种子椭圆形或球形或卵球形，腹面有凹穴，胚乳均匀，胚侧生
生态习性：
喜温暖、湿润、向阳的环境，能耐0℃左右的低温。好阳光，亦能耐阴。抗风、耐旱、耐湿，也较耐盐碱，能在海边生长。喜湿润、肥沃的粘性土壤。
产地与分布：
约30种，分布于亚洲及大洋洲热带地区。中国有3-4种，分布于西南部至东南部。其中蒲葵在南方广泛栽培
园林应用：
蒲葵茎粗，叶大，树冠如伞，四季常青，适于热带地区绿化。可做行道树、庭阴树。配置在园路、广场、与草地山石搭配，寒地多盆栽观赏。
其他用途
叶可制作蒲扇，种子入药。嫩叶可制成葵扇，为该县的土特产之一，亦可制蓑笠或为屋顶的遮盖物

The Chinese fanpalm, Livistona chinensis
Livistona chinensis is one of the more cold hardy palm trees commonly in cultivation,and yet ironically is native to the essentially frost free subtropical islandsand coastlines of China, Taiwan, and southern Japan. This palm is better knownby its common names, the Chinese fan palm and the fountain palm. The formername comes from its palmate leaf structure, while the latter is due to thefrond’s hanging apical lobes that create a falling, fountain-like appearance.Without a doubt, this palm is the most commonly grown Livistona species in the world, andgiven its beauty and cold-hardiness, it deserves a closer look.
The Chinese fan palm is a tall trunk formingpalm of coastal and island forests amidst warm, subtropical seas, commonlyforming monospecific groves. They typically stand no more than 10 meters tall,but large specimens can approach 15 meters. The gray to brown trunk is usuallynot more than 30 centimeters in diameter and is essentially naked since thepetiole stubs tend to fall away quickly once old fronds are shed. The frondsare costapalmate (having long costa extending up the center of the palm-shapedleaf), up to 200 centimeters long, nearly as wide, and can number 50 or moreforming a dense crown. The thin, long apical lobes hang perfectly downward givingthe crown a pleasing, fountain-like appearance. The petioles are stiff andhighly serrated with sharp brown spines, and are 150 -180 centimeters long. Thetrunk is unbranched and strong, being quite capable of withstanding intensetyphoon winds that haunt this tree’s native shores.
