This well known and much loved small palm from Mexico has stiff, simple and undivided leaves that are dark green, almost black, with a metallic sheen from which the plant derives its name. Very tolerant of low lit conditions, it makes an ideal houseplant, or in warm temperate to tropical regions, a useful understory palm that will grow in deep shade. |
