ProRep Live plant. Parlour Palm Medium x5
General Information: Chamaedorea elegans, also known as the Parlor Palm, is a popular choice for indoor plant enthusiasts due to its elegant appearance and low maintenance requirements. This plant can grow up to 4-6 feet tall and is native to the rainforests of Guatemala and Mexico.
The common Parlour Palm seems a strange choice for the terrarium as it can get very tall. As a small plant however it is ideal due to its tolerance of low light and a wide variety of moisture levels. Under low light conditions the plant will grow very slowly and does not really get much taller than when planted. With more light the fronds will get progressively taller and eventually it needs carefully trimming or moving to a new location. Although this palm grows from the base it should not be cut back to round level as this can kill it. Instead remove the dead outer fronds or remove very tall ones by cutting the stem. A large plant is ideal for chameleons as they can form thick clumps.
These plants enhance your pet’s terrarium, creating a natural and attractive environment. See our bioactive set up kits.
