Chamaedorea seifritzii is an elegant compact-growing palm tree that is perfect for inside the home or in a frost-free space in the garden. Unlike many other palms, these take up very little width. They grow in a clump with multiple trunks, heading mostly upright formation until they are allowed to grow very large.In the garden they require a warm, sheltered part shade spot eventually growing into a V-shaped clump 1.5-2m across. Not a bamboo but named so for the beautiful cane-like stems produced and gradually exposed as the shoots age.

These XL Sized palms are approximately 90-120cm tall.Large-sized palms and their fronds must fit inside our 1m tall Large cartons so are 70-90cm tall. Search our Large Plants for these as they can be couriered NZ wide but XL plants are available in selected Auckland & Whangarei postcodes.
