Lignifying plant with shrubby growth form. The individual stalks are covered with fibres and leaf sheaths. The dark green palm fronds have 6 to 9 shiny leaflets that narrow to a point. The bamboo palm forms tripartite yellow flowers, which go on to produce indehiscent fruits in a panicle, each with one spherical seed.
The bamboo palm is popular as a decorative houseplant as its hand-shaped leaves have a beautifully balanced shape, few prickles and a dark green sheen.
We have also recognized the decorative value of the bamboo palm by planting it in a pot at the restaurant entrance where its lush growth helps create a tropical ambiance.
