In the 1970s, tall coconut varieties in Florida and the Caribbean were victims of a deadly yellowing disease. In just a couple of decades, millions of coconut palms perished to the disease, so a replacement variety was in dire need. The Fiji dwarf coconut turned out to be resistant to the deadly pathogen, so it was subsequently planted all throughout Caribbean countries as well as Florida. The Fiji dwarf coconut produces fruit at a young age and height, so coconuts are able to be harvested without the use of a ladder. In addition, this variety has many leaves compacted at the top, making it appear more vibrant and lush than other varieties
