Archontophoenix
Archontophoenix is a plant genus comprising six palm species that are native to New South Wales and Queensland in eastern Australia. They are tall, slender and unbranched. Relationships between Archontophoenix and the other genera of subtribe Archontophoenicinae, including the New Caledonia endemic Actinokentia, Chambeyronia and Kentiopsis are unresolved.[2]

gollark: Again, spare resources and stuff.
gollark: Maybe unfreezing people initially costs a few billion $ so only some weird billionaires are unfrozen at first, but advancing technology will make it cheaper eventually.
