''H. forsteriana'' in particular is commonly grown as an indoor plant in the Northern Hemisphere, and the two species form the mainstay of the island's palm seed industry and more importantly its trade in newly germinated seedlings. The palms are also cultivated on [[Norfolk Island]], where seeds are produced for export.
