About the product photos
The Ø17 / 65 cm image is an original photograph. The other sizes are based on photos from the corresponding supplier listings, digitally edited with the help of AI to standardize the background and remove branding. For the Ø17 / 80 cm and Ø20 / 90 cm sizes, one plant was separated from a group photo; areas obscured by neighboring plants were reconstructed for illustrative purposes. These images are not an exact record of the specific item you will receive.

Caring for Chamaedorea elegans
Chamaedorea elegans, also known as the Neanthe Bella palm or parlor palm, is one of the most popular indoor palms. Its delicate, arching fronds bring a tropical touch to any interior.

Humidity: Mist the leaves regularly or place the plant on a tray of damp gravel.
Fertilizing and growth
Fertilizing: Every 4 weeks during the growing season, use a liquid fertilizer for palms. Do not fertilize in winter.
