Plant description
Understated and architectural, few houseplants will generate quite as much vertical impact as the palms. Ranging from the relatively compact parlour palm, to the taller kentia and bamboo palms (which once mature, will easily fill the corner of a room), their gracefully arching fronds will give a bright, indirectly lit spot in your home an air-purifying burst of greenery.
Please note that the pots in the photograph are not supplied with the plants (which are sent out in simple nursery alternatives), but we have a wide and wonderful range on our website to choose from.

What's included:
In this complementary palm collection you will receive one each of the following:
Chamaedorea elegans: A sought-after plant during the Victorian era, and still in demand today, this relatively compact palm is easy to grow, and will also help filter the air inside your home. It's quite a slow growing plant, so this semi-mature specimen is ideal for adding an immediate impact. Grows to 2.5m.
Dypsis lutescens: A graceful, attractive palm with closely growing upright stems and long arching linear leaves, that makes a handsome focal point for any room. Still one of the most popular houseplants and it’s easy to see why as it is so versatile and easy to look after. Grows to 8m (but unlikely as a houseplant!)
Howea forsteriana: One of the most popular palms which if you stepped back into the Victorian times would have been seen in many a drawing room. They are still popular today as they are easy to grow, evergreen and will complement most rooms. Keep them away from direct sunlight as this can burn the leaves, and away from cold draughts. Grows to 3m.

Which house plant where?
Which house plants you choose should depend on the environment you intend to keep them in, the space available, how much time you can spend preening them as well as your personal preference. For me, foliage house plants are the ticket, because they provid
