Plant Bio

Chamaedorea cataractarum

There are several species of palms that are well adapted to life indoors (if you have enough light for them) and Cat Palm is one of the most common. This small palm is native to areas of Central America and tends to grow in a clump, rather than with tall trunks like we usually think of with palms. Its lush, dark green fronds add a touch of life to any home environment.

Tip: Like most palm species, Cat Palm is prone to spider mites, especially in dry indoor air. Cool temperatures and above-average indoor humidity levels can slow the spread of these pests.

Note: This plant may have some natural degree of toxicity and may cause discomfort or illness if ingested. Additionally, exposure to the sap of this plant may cause discomfort to individuals with a sensitivity to it upon contact. Grown for ornamental purposes and not intended for human or animal consumption.
