Description
Chamaedorea microspadix, commonly called hardy bamboo palm, is a compact, clump-forming palm that has surprisingly good winter hardiness. Plants will tolerate light frosts and can be grown outdoors in many parts of NZ except where heavy frosts occur. The stalks of this palm are ringed by leaf scars and somewhat resemble bamboo canes, hence the common name. It is native to forested areas of central to northeastern Mexico where it often forms dense colonies. Outdoors, plants typically mature to 2m to 3m tall, but sometimes assume a more prostrate growth habit. As a houseplant, hardy bamboo palm usually grows much the same if a bit more restricted in size. It is noted for its dense, attractive foliage, compact shape and easy maintenance. Each pinnate green leaf typically has up to 9-11 pairs of narrow green leaflets. Clusters of creamy white flowers may bloom in summer if enough light is present. Plants are dioecious. Red fruit on female plants looks attractive.
the genus name comes from the Greek wordsΒ chamaiΒ meaning on the ground andΒ doreaΒ meaning a gift as the fruits are easily gathered from the ground.
All in all a brilliant outdoor foliage accent plant for shady areas in climates that suffer only occasional winter frost (or none at all). Makes a great screen. Container plant for patios, foundations and other prominent locations around the home. Indoors, it survives well in houses, apartments, offices and commercial establishments such as malls.
