You will receive a similar plant to the one photographed and not necessarily the same. If you would like a photo of the exact plant we are sending, just drop us a line! Pots and plants are sold separately unless otherwise specified in the listing.
Chamaedorea cataractarum, commonly known as the Cat Palm, is a lush tropical houseplant with dense clumps of elegant, feathery fronds. Unlike many palms that grow on a single trunk, this variety forms a full, bushy cluster of bright green foliage, making it perfect for adding soft, tropical texture to indoor spaces. Its compact yet full growth habit makes it ideal for bright corners, living rooms, and offices where you want a relaxed jungle feel.
Plant Care Light: Bright indirect light is ideal. It’ll tolerate dappled light or some soft morning sun, but avoid strong direct rays that can scorch the fronds.
Watering: Keep the soil evenly moist, especially during the growing season. Let the top inch dry out slightly between waterings—never bone dry, never soggy.
Temperature: Thrives in 18–26°C. Keep away from cold draughts, radiators, or dry air—this palm loves a calm, consistent climate.
Potting: Our Thirst Trap mix is perfect—moisture-retentive but well-draining, ideal for supporting steady hydration without swampy roots.
Hot tips: Loves humidity, so it’s a great choice for bathrooms or grouped with other plants. Clean the fronds gently to keep them lush and dust-free. Feed monthly in spring and summer to support growth.
Pet Friendly: YES
