Caryota

Caryota 

The Asian palm Caryota will surprise you with its unusual shape of its leaves, with its festive splendour and exotic appearance. In nature this plant can be found on tropical islands like Java, the Philippines or New Guinea, where there are up to 12 of its varieties. The word Caryota in Greek means "nut", so Caryota is also called "nut palm" because of its smooth leaves. The life span of such a plant usually does not exceed 20 years.

It will not be difficult to recognize Caryota among the many palm trees - the contours of its leaf blades are unique and asymmetrical, and the lush crown looks thick and impressive. Surprisingly, in natural conditions Caryota can grow up to 15 meters. However, in indoor or garden conditions, this evergreen and voluminous plant is not higher than 2 meters.

In fact, Caryota is unpretentious, but it should be borne in mind that it loves moisture, tropical conditions will be required for its favourable life. Caryota mainly grows as a bushy plant with many trunks, but can also be in the form of a single-stem plant. The planted Caryota looks light and airy thanks to its dissected leaves, similar to feathers or a fish tail. The peculiarity of this tropical palm tree is monocarpic development - in nature it blooms only once in a lifetime, once in ten years, and then dies. In indoor conditions Caryota blooms only when ideal moisture and temperature conditions observed, so it is extremely important for a gardener to keep to the necessary conditions for keeping it blooming as long as possible.
