Pritchardia hardy, the Makaleha pritchardia,[2] is a species of palm tree that is endemic to moist forests on the island of Kauaʻi at elevations below 2,000 feet (610 m). The trunk of this fast-growing species reaches a height of 80 feet (24 m), with a diameter of 1 foot (0.30 m). Its leaves are 3 feet (0.91 m) in length.[3] In 1998 only 30 individuals remained in the wild along a single trail on Kauai.[1] This is a federally listed endangered species of the United States.
