Can you name this palm tree?  We were told it was a coco palm.  I can't find anything like it on the web.  The flower is at least 2 feet (61 cm) long and attracts hundreds of bees and rainbow lorikeets.  From the time we noticed it, it lasted about 3-4 days at which time all the flowers had fallen off.  The droning of the bees originally drew our attention to it.
