Nectarine Spring Red

Rhopalostylis sapida, the Nikau Palm, showcases unique traits in its geographic varieties, particularly the ‘Chatham Island’ form, a rare variety prized by collectors. This specific variety is noted for its broader, rich green leaflets that can display a silvery hue, and it produces larger fruit than its mainland counterparts. It’s known for a more robust and faster-growing habit, proving hardier to frost and drought. As a statement piece, this upright, slow-growing palm is a stunning floor plant. It thrives in conditions from full sun to partial shade and prefers moist, well-drained soil. While it requires patience, its majestic, architectural form is a rewarding, beginner-friendly choice for temperate gardens and a pet-friendly household.
