An impressive evergreen plant grown for its large, dramatically spiralling stems and shiny emerald-green foliage. As it matures, the huge leaves open out to give the appearance of long green fingers, that are divided into 10-20 leaflets, borne on spiralling stems, measuring between 20-40cm in length. Originating from warmer forests in South America, this wonderful plant will really add a touch of the tropics to your home.
Please note that the pot in the photograph is not supplied with the plant (which is sent out in a simple nursery alternative), but we have a wide and wonderful range on our website to choose from. - Home care: Water freely when in growth, but keep drier in winter. Mist the leaves regularly with water to increase humidity and every so often put it under a cold shower to wash off the leaves. Make sure the winter temperatures stay above 10°C, and repot every couple of years.
- Humans/Pets: Harmful if eaten; skin/eye irritant/allergen
