This amazing Lady Palm is very low maintenance and super cold hardy which accounts for its popularity! R. excelsa requires very little light, is very drought tolerant and not susceptible to health issues. R. excelsa is hardy to Zone 8b and can survive temperatures down to the mid twenties without damage. Lower temperatures will kill stems but the plant may recover. Rhapis excelsa is also very adaptable to different soil types. 'Size' refers to growing container sizes appropriate for plants being sold. Plant size may vary accordingly. Plants are carefully shipped bare to semi bare-root. During winter protect your plant(s) with a 72 hour shipping warmer. Lady Palm & The NASA Clean Air Study: A project led by NASA researched ways to clean the air in space stations. Its results suggested that, in addition to absorbing carbon dioxide and releasing oxygen through photosynthesis, certain indoor plants may also provide a natural way of removing pollutants (benzene, formaldehyde, and trichloroethylene, xylene & toluene, and ammonia were tested). The Lady Palm was shown to top the list being effective at removing all types of pollutants studied. This awesome, cold tolerant, slow growing “ Air Cleaner “ palm is ideal for shady locations indoors or out, and lends a rich tropical look to your landscape or home.
