Rhapis excelsa - The Lady Palm has a layered, almost Oriental look - different from most other South Florida palms. A graceful palm for garden areas that allow it room to spread out, this palm grows multiple thin trunks topped with fronds like little green umbrellas.

Even though lady palms are clustering, they grow so slowly that they're easily controlled and won't get away from you. Their rounded shape gives an appealing formal yet tropical appearance.
