Saw Palmetto (serenoa repens, sabal serrulatum) is a 2-4 m (3-6 ft) fan palm native to the USA, mostly along the Atlantic and Gulf Coastal plains. It is a strong plant, extremely slow growing, and long lived, with some plants, especially in Florida, being as old as 500-700 years. It produces fruits that are crushed and used as a medicinal herb, or to make a tea.
