Nice little chamaedorea tenella

[happypalms]

A great little palm the tenella. I couldn’t go past this one in flower I just had to admire it. It’s a male so a great one for a bit of pollination. You just cannot beat chamaedoreas for the beauty they have, and there’s no shortage of varieties available either.

I thought mine were female but they look pretty similar to yours Richard. Will have to go out and have a closer look. Such cool little palms.

Couple of nice ones. Some chameadorea flowers look so similar male and female, I only know this was a male by the pollen I spotted when I moved it. I have two others and iam pretty confident o eg is a female as well, so I might have to arrange a marriage for them.

Surprising how many species of Chamaedorea there are . That is a very nice one . Harry

Beatiful, Richard. It sounds Mexican too, at least to me. She also looks very delicate.

Yes, Harry. For us here, the list seems to be getting endlessly longer, which is great, though, and wonderful for nature as a whole—this biodiversity within the Chamaedorea family.

I just love them, I was in Sydney last week and got to a Cham Fromdosa now that’s a beautiful little Cham.

A perfect indoor palm for you, very small palm and easy to grow.
