Veitchia Merrillii - Buy 5 seeds?
A very decorative palm from the Philippines that is well suited as a houseplant. In the wild, it is a small palm up to 5 metres tall with leaves up to 1.5 metres long that is widespread in Manila, the capital of the Philippines. The trunk is initially broad, then has several rings and is green at the top, which makes it very decorative. The inflorescence can be up to 60 cm long and consists of greenish-grey flowers. These flowers are followed by 3 cm large, green fruits that turn a bright red colour towards the end of December. This is why this palm is also known as the Christmas palm: it is beautifully decorated around Christmas. Provide a bright location and water the plant regularly.
Sowing: Soak the seeds in lukewarm water for a few hours, then sow in sowing soil and allow to germinate at around 25 °C. Keep the soil moist at all times. Keep the soil constantly moist. Keep the soil constantly moist.
