Chamaedorea Elegans, also known as the Mexican dwarf palm, is native to the rainforests of southern Mexico and Guatemala. It is a beautiful, graceful plant that is also very strong, making it perfect for the novice plant carer. This palm will give your room a real jungle vibe in no-time, but you don't have to worry about it outgrowing its spot. This dwarf palm gets its nickname from its compact growth, and it will not grow into a large, overbearing plant. The Mexican dwarf palm is an ideal addition to your Uban Jungle.
Care When taking care of the Chamaedorea, it is important that the soil does not get dry, but avoid leaving the roots in water. So give the plant small amounts of water. During the summer, watering once every four days is sufficient and in winter only once every two weeks. The Chamaedorea prefers a lot of light, but preferably not direct sunlight. It is best to place the dwarf palm near a window facing north. If the leaves turn lighter or yellow, the plant is receiving too much light.
Size The plants have a height of 80 to 90cm upon delivery (measured incl. pot). The plants are supplied in pots with a diameter of 20cm.
