The Washington palm is one of the most distinctive palm varieties. Capable of reaching heights of 80 feet or more, the tree is considered one of the tallest and fastest-growing of the palm species.
This particular palm tree has survived the test of time and stands tall in the Botanical Gardens at Warrnambool.
