  • Botanical Name: Pachypodium 'lamerei'
  • Common Names: Madagascar Palm
  • Description: This bold houseplant is sourced from Madagascar and features a crown of leaves, hence its popular moniker, the Madagascar Palm. The genus name, Pachypodium, is derived from the Greek for "thick foot", referring to the swollen, water-hoarding stem that provides the plant stamina and support. As the thick stem ascends, the crown of foliage will gradually wither and be replaced by new, fresh leaves. The entire plant contains a toxic latex sap, creating further protection from curious cats with the addition of its hardy, bristly spines.
