Pritchardia remota, a member of the Arecaceae (palm) family, is a tree 4 to 5 m (13 to 16 ft) tall with a ringed, wavy trunk about 15 cm (5.9 in) in diameter. The rather ruffled, fan-shaped leaves are 80 cm (31 in) in diameter and are somewhat waxy to pale green with a few tiny scales on the lower surface. The flowering stalks, up to 30 cm (12 in) long, are branched and have flowers arranged spirally along the hairless stalks. Below each flower is a bract 2 to 3 mm (0.08 to 0.1 in) long. The flower consists of a cup-shaped, three-lobed calyx (fused sepals); three petals, each about 0.2 in (6 mm) long; six stamens; and a three-lobed stigma. The pale greenish brown fruit is almost globose, 1.9 to 2 cm (0.7 to 0.8 in) long and about 1.9 cm (0.7 in) in diameter.
