Rhapis excelsa, the Lady Palm, is a hardy clump-forming fan palm with glossy, deeply split, dark-green fronds carried on slender, bamboo-like canes. Native to southern China and Taiwan and long cultivated across Asia, it is one of the most adaptable indoor palms, tolerating low light, dry air and neglect better than most. It forms a dense, upright clump that suits living rooms, offices and shaded balconies in India. Slow-growing, pet-safe and tidy, it is a refined, low-maintenance choice that adds lush, fan-shaped greenery and a calm tropical feel to interiors.

How do I propagate it?
