Geonoma macrostachys
Geonoma macrostachys is a delicate understorey palm native to the Amazon basin that thrives in high humidity, warm temperatures, and bright indirect light. Keep the soil consistently moist and mist regularly or use a humidifier to replicate its tropical rainforest origins. It is a specialist plant best suited to experienced growers or heated conservatories rather than typical home conditions.
