Description

Cocos nucifera, commonly known as the coconut palm, is a tall, solitary, evergreen palm (the only species in the genus Cocos) native to tropical Asia and the Pacific Islands. It features a slender, often gracefully curved trunk, topped by a full crown of long pinnate, flowing fronds, and produces large, green to yellow drupes (coconuts) with remarkable ecological and cultural significance. The species has been cultivated by humans for millennia for its versatile uses in food, water, materials, and more, and has become emblematic of tropical landscapes worldwide.

Pinnate leaves 4–6 m long with old leaves dropping to leave a smooth, ring‑scarred trunk
Produces a fibrous drupe (the coconut) adapted for ocean dispersal and with multiple human uses—from food and oil to coir and crafts
Only extant species in the genus Cocos, with extraordinary cultural importance and ecological adaptability across tropical coastal zones
