  • Long, narrow leaves that grow in bundles from the top and hang gracefully downwards.
  • Green, narrow leaves give the plant a playful, exotic look.
  • With a height of approximately ↕120 cm, it is a striking, yet calm eye-catcher.

Location & light

  • Ideal for a sunny spot indoors , for example near a south, east or west-facing window.
  • Can also tolerate partial shade, but grows more compact and beautiful in sufficient light.
  • In a warm climate the plant can be kept outside in summer, provided it is protected from cold and frost.

Water & care

  • Requires little water; allow the potting soil to dry out thoroughly between waterings.
  • It is better to give a little water occasionally than too much often.
  • Soil that is too wet can damage the trunk, so ensure good drainage and avoid stagnant water.
