Product Description
The Rhapis Excelsa, or more simply the lady palm, is a champion at purifying the air. It's also known as the bamboo palm, a nickname it owes to its bamboo-like stems. The lady palm is incredibly easy to care for, which makes it ideal for anyone who isn't blessed with green fingers. It's unique in its kind and a must-have for any home.
Care & tips for the Rhapis Excelsa - 130cm
The Rhapis Excelsa doesn't need much care at all, but even this tropical friend likes a little attention now and then. Give it plant food every week, but skip this in winter. The palm goes into rest mode then, and plant food can even do it harm. So make sure you know how best to look after this tropical houseplant. Here are a few tips.
How much water does the Rhapis Excelsa - 130cm need?
The Rhapis Excelsa does like a drink. Keep the soil lightly moist at all times, but take care not to give too much. Water can build up around the roots and cause root rot, which is often hard to come back from, so it's best to prevent it.
How much light does the Rhapis Excelsa - 130cm need?
Put the Rhapis Excelsa in a bright spot, but out of direct sunlight. Tropical houseplant or not, direct sun does this palm no favours. A place with a few hours of shade during the day is very welcome.
Is the Rhapis Excelsa - 130cm toxic?
The Rhapis Excelsa is not toxic, which puts it firmly on the list of pet-friendly plants.
