The lovely lanonia dasyantha

[happypalms]

If you’re after a beautiful easy growing palm, look no further than the dasyantha. They seem to love whatever iam doing to them. A beautiful understory palm. I have a few in dappled light to deep shade to morning sun and they all seem to love growing in these conditions. They will drink as much water as you give them and a little tolerance to mild dry conditions if you miss a watering. 
I love them super easy to grow and not too bad on the eye, the poor man’s mapu is definitely worth growing. I even lucked up with a variegated variety from a seed batch I germinated.

Super nice looking palm . They would probably not be happy here . Our dry winds would not be favorable , they look like they enjoy humidity . Like Licuala , most are hard to keep happy. That variegated one is very special , I’ll bring my shovel! “ dig fast , run like you stole it”  Harry😂🌴

They will grow for you in your grow room, and might even grow in the ground with a bit of winter protection could be worth a try!

Oh yeah drive it like you stole it hey! I reckon you’ll be in with a chance of growing one around the back of your house in a protected shaded corner in a container.
