Chamaedorea woodsoniana

One of the largest Chamaedorea, this palm from rainforests stretching from southern Mexico to Panama or possibly northern Colombia can reach up to 12 m (40 ft.) tall. It produces a slender, green, solitary trunk that holds a crown of up to 6 ascending leaves with stiff leaflets. Like other Chamaedorea it adapts extremely well to cultivation and does best in a warm temperate climate under some canopy. It is tolerant of cool conditions and will take an occasional light winter freeze without damage.
