Caryota Mitis XXL - øsize 27cm - Height 120-130cm

The Caryota Mitis is also known as the fishtail palm. This is because the unique leaves resemble fish tales. The striking fish tail leaves give the Caryota a unique look compared to other palms. The fishtail palm appears in tropics around the world, where it can grow up to 12 meters high! Don’t worry, the plant is a slow grower and will not be reaching these heights indoors. The Caryota Mitis can grow well in dark spots, which makes the plant perfect for office locations.

Care
Like other palms, the Caryota Mitis likes to stand in constantly moist soil. However, it is important that no layer of water forms at the bottom of the pot. This can cause root rot. Therefore, it is best to water the plant once every five days in summer, and once every two weeks in winter. The Caryota stands well in a shady spot, but the plant needs light. If the palm receives too little light, growth may stagnate.

Size
The plant has a height of 120-130cm upon delivery, measured including the nursery pot. The plant is supplied in a nursery pot with a diameter of 27cm.
