This kind of palm tree has been confused with another type of palm, which was initially called Dypsis sp. Bejofa. [3] Now this kind is called as Dypsis sp. 'Bejofa'. [3] Despite the fact that the names have changed because of the similarity in the names, there is still confusion, even though, their appearances are different. [3]
