I purchased a palm this weekend from a roadside dealer. He told me the name of the palm is a "ravolini", and I've seen it advertised in other places, but cannot find it in any of the palm guides I've found on-line. Is there another name for this palm?

Only thing I could find that comes close are raveanea or roebelenii

Here are some sites that might help
