CHAMAEDOREA GLAUCIFOLIA SUPER SIMILAR TO C. PLUMOSA

TAKES A FAIR AMOUNT OF SUN – SINGLE STEM, THIN TRUNK

From time to time I discuss this interesting single trunk Chamaedorea. It is very similar to Chamaedorea plumosa – except: The plumosa has a more plumose leaf and takes a little more sun. But, the glaucifolia has the silver powder on the leaf stems and crown shaft as shown here. This is quite attractive and typically very prominent. Otherwise, you would mistake the two. And, it too, can tolerate near full coastal sun. They are fast growing and get to a mature height of about 14 feet. They look their best when planted in colonies of three to five plants. The 15 gallon on special are multiples, usually three per pot, and ready for the garden. It is a durable species and seem exempt from fungal problems that can plague C. plumosa. For this reason, they are more reliable than C. plumosa. Cold hardiness is about 25 degrees F.
