Corypha utan, more commonly known as Gebang Palm, or Cabbage Palm is a large imposing fan palm that reaches up to 20 m high with palm fronds between 4m and 6 m across, growing in areas from the Assam region of India through Indochina, Malaysia, and Indonesia to the Philippines and New Guinea, south to Australia's Cape York Peninsula. These palms (like all Corypha) flower only towards the end of their lifetime, but when they do flower they send up a massive inflorescence up to 5m high, and with an estimated one million flowers.
