Abstract
Fully developed specimens of Brazilian species belonging to the palm collection of the FCAV-UNESP, Jaboticabal, state of São Paulo, Brazil, were evaluated with view to their use in landscape projects. Data of interest were taken: maximum plant height, canopy diameter, leaf length, leaf type, trunk height and diameter, trunk type, time of flowering and fruiting, local adaptation, main ornamental values, and limitations to use. The evaluation lead to recommendations for the use of these species for specific situations in landscape planting.
