Chambeyronia macrocarpa

Famous for the incredible color of the newly opened leaf, this exciting and comparatively new-to-cultivation palm is easy to look after, performs well as an interior palm, and adds special something to the garden with its bright red, new leaves. Germination of the large seeds is quite fast and easy, and it is a robust, adaptable and steady grower. Mature plants sport a slender, ringed trunk and elegantly recurved, very thick and leathery leaves. Warm temperate to tropical climates suit it best and it can even take an occasional light frost.
