Omggg. I want this in my yard so bad but it’s highly invasive. Imagine lining your property with this as a sort of privacy wall.

    If you want a similar leaf habit, locusts trees are a good fit. But many species of them have huge thorns and some are invasive in certain areas.

    wonderful news: we have a similar one that is native in the US! it's called a florida tree fern, Ctenitis Sloanei, and it's fortunately easy to buy despite it being very endangered.

      Fun fact: many endangered in the wild plants are intentionally mass-propagated for captive care as a part of conservation efforts. It helps protect the wild populations from poaching
