The Malaysian Dwarf Coconut, scientifically known as Cocos nucifera, belongs to the Arecaceae family. It is a versatile and highly regarded variety known for its compact size and earlier fruiting compared to its taller counterparts. Originating from the tropical zones, the Malaysian Dwarf Coconut thrives in warm climates and is especially suited for cultivation in tropical and subtropical regions worldwide.

Special Features:

• Compact Growth: This variety is characterized by its shorter stature, usually reaching 5-7 meters in height, which allows for easier harvesting and maintenance.
• Aesthetic Appeal: With its lush green foliage and smaller size, the Malaysian Dwarf Coconut serves as an attractive landscape feature in addition to its practical benefits.

Maximum Height: 5-7 meters, making it ideal for a range of landscapes.

Fruiting Time: Begins to produce fruit approximately 3-4 years after planting.
