Cyrtostachys renda

The Cyrtostachys renda, commonly known as the Red Sealing Wax Palm, is one of the most spectacular palms in the world. Its bright red trunk and leaf stems contrast beautifully with the elegant green foliage, making it a true eye-catcher. Native to the tropics of Southeast Asia, this palm develops its striking red colour from a young age. It requires warm temperatures, high humidity, and consistently moist, well-drained soil – an exceptional choice for collectors of tropical palms.
