Question

What are some native plants found only in Cuba?

Answer 1

Cuban endemic plants include: the ceibón tree (Bombax emarginatum), palmita de sierra (Thrinax microcarpa), cayman oak (Ekmanianthes actinophylla) and a kind of palm tree (Mycrocycas calocoma)-a living Jurassic fossil that can only be found in a small area of Pinar del Río.

I found this on

(I'm not sure that the first few are ONLY in Cuba)...but the last certainly seems to be.

I'll tell you another...because it's my one vice...cuban tobacco plants are not grown anywhere else...although many cigar companies have tried.

Also..

Good luck.
