Hyospathe elegans

Post by Knnn » Sat Jul 21, 2007 3:09 pm

An understory Palm from South America.

Some more info here ---> http://herb42.bio.au.dk:591/Palmbase/FM ... =281&-Find

With most of my Palms in containers ,I have been trying more of these understory ones to see if they can adapt to inside conditions.

My germination experience with these is that most had already sprouted in transit :lol:

Throw them in a baggie with some moss and them hang them from a rafter in your GH ( not in direct sun)
This always works good this time of year 8)
