Latin
name:
Rhapis excelsa
Common name:
Lady Palm
Light requirements:
Low to Medium
Rhapis excelsa is an excellent low
to medium light interior palm. They grow well in higher light levels
as long as they are not placed in hot direct sunshine. This
stately palm has an oriental look and feel to it. Their columnar
growth habit is maintained for the life of the plant... making them
an ideal choice for areas where width is a concern. Lady
Palms are slow growers. The pictured plant took about 4 to 5 years
to grow. Because of the time required to produce this plant... they
are somewhat expensive. Tropical
Interiors Inc, has Lady Palms available in height ranges from 3 foot
and up. |
