Positive palmbob On Mar 2, 2004, palmbob from Tarzana, CA (Zone 9b) wrote:

Elegant, tall Chamaedorea with big, ridged, oval leaves. This is a relatively fast grower (for a palm in So Cal) and has some good cold hardiness. what it doesn't have is wind or sun hardiness, so needs to be planted in a sheltered place.
