Eremospatha

Eremospatha is a genus of climbing flowering plants in the palm family found in tropical Africa.

Closely related to Laccosperma, they are differentiated by the near complete absence of bracts and bracteoles.

The slender, high-climbing trunks are naturally clustering and can reach up to 45 m (148 ft) in length.

The pale blooms are fragrant and produce a red to brown, scaly fruit, each containing one to three seeds.

[4] These palms are native to the rain forest of west Africa, the Congo Basin, and to Tanzania where they grow in swamps and alongside rivers.
