$39.99
Livistona chinensis, or the Chinese Fan Palm, is a popular, slow-growing palm known for its large, fan-shaped leaves that droop gracefully, resembling a fountain. Native to East Asia, it's adaptable for both indoor and outdoor use, thriving in full sun to partial shade and well-drained soil, and is drought-tolerant once established. It's a low-maintenance ornamental plant, often used as a landscape specimen or container plant, but can be invasive in some regions like Florida.
