Product Description
Better known as the parlour palm, Chamaedorea elegans is a graceful evergreen houseplant, whose slender stems and arching green fronds create a light, softly tropical appearance. Each frond is divided into numerous narrow leaflets, giving the foliage a fine, feathery quality that sets it apart from broader-leaved indoor plants.
A favourite in the home since Victorian times, the Chamaedorea elegans combines an elegant, upright form with a relatively slow-growing habit. Its gently spreading fronds build a fresh, layered silhouette as the plant develops, offering plenty of greenery while retaining the refined character behind its enduring popularity.
All plants will be delivered in nursery pots, decorative pots not included.

Growing at a glance…
Water lightly, allowing the soil to dry out a bit between watering. If the top two inches of soil is dry, it's time to water! Grows best in bright, indirect light, but can tolerate semi-shaded areas of your home. Feed on a regular basis from March to September when growth is active. Avoid draughts, maintain temperatures 18C (65F) - 24C (75F). Do not allow temperatures to fall below 12C (55F). Fast draining, peat free potting compost preferred.
