Most everyone agrees Lady Palm is one of the finest premium indoor bonsai that you could own. With almost no indoor care, Rhapis Excelsa is happy and healthy giving owners years of lush tropical indoor greenery. This is an expensive palm as propagation is limited and costly because initial growth is slow causing Lady Palm premium prices to be the norm. Native to southern China, Lady Palm grows in clumps of thin stems each covered with woven palm fibers(instead of seeing wood). This covered appearance can extend the entire length of each stem. Lady Palm is a slow grower and also slow in new stem production. It "goes with the flow" of conditions as it is widely adaptable to low or moderate lighting conditions, and amazingly, dry air is no problem either. Lady Palm leaves are palmate in shape and are deeply divided in 4-10 segments ending in a blunt end, whereas almost all other palms end in pointed tips. Lady Palm foliage is very shiny and very green, especially in shade or indoors. Too much sun bleaches leaves to a less desirable lighter color. Lady Palm is moderately drought tolerant and is very easy and totally appropriate in shady spots or indoors. 6 years old. 7" - 9" tall. Suitable humidity/drip tray is recommended. To purchase add $4.95. Shipped UPS 2-3 days - $11.95
