CHAMAEDOREA COSTARICANA ONE OF THE BEST BAMBOO PALMS

EASY TO GROW – A GREAT INTERIOR PALM

This suckering palm species is native to Mexico and Central America. It is one of about four types of “Bamboo Palms” and is probably either the best or in a stiff competition with Chamaedorea hooperiana. This species gets to a mature height of twelve to sixteen feet, has strong 1 inch to 1.5 inch trunks which are green in color with prominent rings, and about three to four foot long leaves. It is an upright grower and does clump. It doesn’t run. It takes filtered light or morning sun along the coast. I’ve even heard of some growing it in full sun although I’d not recommend it. It is a good growing species. Cold hardiness is into the mid to lower 20’s F.

Below I’m showing in the first six photos the 5g size which we’re putting on sale. This size can be mail ordered no problem.
