Rhapis excelsa (Bamboo Broadleaf Lady Palm) | 5 to 25 Fresh Seeds | £4.49 - £16.99

Fresh Seeds of Rhapis excelsa (Bamboo Lady Palm) with full instructions for germination.

An elegant, small, evergreen palm, native to China and Vietnam, with long-stalked, handsome, dark-green, architectural foliage divided into narrow lobes, held on slender, cane-like stems. Panicles of tiny yellow flowers are borne among the leaves in summer.

Makes an eye-catching and highly-ornamental houseplant or conservatory plant, outside of the tropics (frost-tender) — growing best within bright, filtered light or dappled shade — and for best foliage appearance they prefer a room with some humidity.

Slow growing, they can be kept under 6 feet within a pot, growing naturally to around 12 feet within open ground.

Please note: full germination instructions are printed on each pack.
