The easy plant
Rhapis excelsa
The Rhapis can rightly be called an easy plant and is also ideal as an office plant. This plant can stand quite dark and does not need much water. This palm has a distinctive trunk, which gives the plant its nickname the Bamboo Palm. The Rhapis comes from the plant family Arecaceae, just like the Cocos nucifera and the Areca palm. The Rhapis palm originally comes from Southeast Asia and parts of China.
The hip plant
Caryota mitis
The special Caryota or Fishtail Palm is a plant with a unique appearance and because it is easy to care for, an ideal plant for the office. The special leaves in the shape of a fish tail give the plant a very characteristic appearance. This graceful palm does not usually grow from one trunk, but from several smaller ones, which gives it a beautiful, full appearance. The Caryota is not very difficult in terms of location and can stand in both a light and a shady place.
Always good plant
Kentia howea forsteriana
