Veitchia joannis
Joannis palm, Niusawa palm
Rarely seen in the U.K., this elegant palm from the Pacific Islands makes a great houseplant. Fast-growing, the wide leaflets bring a touch of the lush tropics to any situation.
Give it plenty of light and keep the soil evenly moist, and it will reward you with accelerated growth. Will tolerate low temperatures but do not expose it to frosts. Can even be kept outdoors during the warmer months.

Care & Size Guidance
Relatively easy to care for, this palm grows happily in pots and responds well to regular feeding and watering.
If given a large pot, Veitchia joannis will grow quickly. To slow down its growth, don’t pot it up too often.
Although plants can take full sun when larger, we recommend giving them just morning or afternoon sun as indoor plants.
Responds well to regular feeding with a palm fertiliser from April to September.
As per usual from this company, another very healthy, excellent quality plant supplied. I have never been disappointed with their service.
