Chamaedorea Seifrizii (Bamboo Palm, Reed Palm) Size/Shape

Chamaedorea seifrizii (Bamboo Palm, Reed Palm) Bamboo palm is an upright small palm that is mostly used as indoor plant. It has diecious flowers, and grows a fruit that starts green in color, than become black when ripen. This type of palm grows in shade or partially shaded ares, where soil is well drained, and is watered moderately.

A VICTORIAN PALM COURT INTRODUCTION Palms comprise a very useful plant family, second only in economic importance to the grasses which supply us with wheat, rice, barley, oats, and other grains. Palms provide the world with food (dates, coconuts, palm oil, hearts of palm), beverages (coconut milk, palm wine), clothing (raincoats, hats), medicines (betel nut), construction materials (thatching, irrigation pipes, logs), rope, fiber, carnauba wax, and hundreds of other products.

Chamaedorea Elegans1
Fact Sheet FPS-119 October, 1999 Chamaedorea elegans1 Edward F. Gilman2 Introduction This palm, native of the dense rain forests of Mexico and Guatemala, is one of the best indoor Chamaedoreas, tolerating crowded roots and low light levels (Fig. 1). Since lower leaves drop from the plant as it grows, older palms have all their foliage on top of the bright green, shiny stem. It grows five to eight feet tall but is usually kept smaller by pruning the stem back nearly to the ground. Growing very slowly, this pale green, single-stemmed palm is most effective when potted three or more to a container. It can also be an effective accent plant in a ground hugging ground cover in a small scale garden. While excellent when used for a house plant, Parlor Palm can also be used outdoors in a shady understory setting as an accent. The showy stems are bright green. General Information Scientific name: Chamaedorea elegans Pronunciation: kam-ee-DOR-ee-uh EL-uh-ganz Common name(s): Parlor Palm, Neanthebella Family: Arecacea Figure 1. Parlor Palm. Plant type: palm USDA hardiness zones: 10B through 11 (Fig. 2) Planting month for zone 10 and 11: year round Description Origin: native to North America Height: 4 to 8 feet Uses: container or above-ground planter; suitable for growing Spread: 2 to 3 feet indoors; border; accent Plant habit: palm; upright Availablity: somewhat available, may have to go out of the Plant density: open region to find the plant Growth rate: slow Texture: medium 1.This document is Fact Sheet FPS-119, one of a series of the Environmental Horticulture Department, Florida Cooperative Extension Service, Institute of Food and Agricultural Sciences, University of Florida.

Population Structure of the Dominant Palm Species in the Understory of a Mexican Lowland Rain Forest
TROPICS Vol. 2 (1): 23 - 28 Issued August, 1992 Population Structure of the Dominant Palm Species in the Understory of a Mexican Lowland Rain Forest Ken OYAMA Centro de Ecologia, U.N.A.M. Apartado Postal 70-275, Mexico, 04510, D.E Current address: Department of Biology, University of Tokyo, Komaba 3-8-1, Meguro-ku, Tokyo 153, Japan Rodolfo DIRZO Centro de Ecologia, U.N. A.M. Apartado Postal 70-275, Mexico, 04510, D.E Guillermo IBARRA-MANRIQUEZ Estaci6n de Biologia Tropical Los Tuxtlas, Apartado Postal 94, Los Tuxtlas, Veracruz, Mexico Abstract Population structure was analyzed for five of the most common species of palms, Astrocaryum mexicanum, Bactris tricophylla, Chamaedorea oblongata, C. tepejilote and Geonoma oxycarpa in a Mexican lowland rain forest. Height and cover of palms with a height> 1.5 m were measured in three 600 m2 plots. The most common species in terms of density were C. tepejilote and A. mexicanum. The highest accumulated cover corresponded to A. mexicanum.Taller palms of C. tepejilote showed higher cover. Almost all palm species had the same architectural model (Comer) and B. tricophylla had the Tomlinson model. Richness of palm species was low compared to other tropical forests although the understory palms in this community represent more than 50 % of all the individuals of the understory vegetation at Los Tuxtlas. The genus Chamaedorea was the most diversified (5 species) while the other genera had only one species. Key words: Mexico / Neotropics / palms / population structure / species diversity / rain forest Few studies have been carried out on the diversity and structure of the palm components within tropical forest communities, although palms usually occur in high numbers in mixed tropical forests.

It is hard to believe but over 20 years have passed since the International Palm Society published Chamaedorea Palms (Hodel 1992a), my monograph of this popular and widely cultivated genus. Since then new species have been identified, named and described, most in the pages of Principes and Palms ; nomenclatural changes have reduced some species to synonymy while resurrecting at least one from a similar fate. New information has come to light that further enriches our understanding of this remarkable group of palms. Here I provide a summary of these developments in the past 20 years, emphasizing and/or illustrating those not previously discussed in this journal or where appropriate images were lacking.

Chamaedorea Alternans Conservation Fact Sheet
Palm Conservation – Palm Specialist Group Chamaedorea alternans Wendl. Status: Currently not internationally listed, listed as threatened in Mexico Common name Pacaya. Natural range Chamaedorea alternans is endemic to the remaining forests of Veracruz, Mexico. These forests mark the northern limit of the tropical rainforest ecosystem and are floristically interesting due to the combination of elements from Caribbean, Central American, and mainland Mexican floras within a relatively restricted geographic area. This species is thought to be restricted to the Los Tuxtlas biosphere reserve, which includes various protected areas in the San Martín Tuxtla region of coastal Veracruz, including the Los Tuxtlas Biological Station. Detailed distributional data has yet to be collected, and much of the surrounding area has not been surveyed for this species. The Uxpanapa- Chimalapa region of Oaxaca, the northern mountain range of Chiapas and the southern range in Tabasco may all be possible new range extensions for this species if careful surveyed. Recognition characteristics Chamaedorea alternans is sympatric in the Los Tuxtlas region with seven other Chamaedorea species, C. tepejilote, C. elatior, C. ernestii-augusti, and C. oblongata, C. pinnatifrons, C. elegans and C. woodsonia, making correct taxonomic distinction somewhat difficult for an untrained eye, especially when only vegetative characters are at hand or when examining herbarium vouchers. Chamaedorea alternans is distinguished by its white-margined leaf sheaths which display distinct venation, whereas most other Chamaedorea species have green leaf sheaths that lack obvious venation. Chamaedorea alternans is a member of the subgenus Stephanostachys based both on traditional morphological studies and more modern molecular phylogenies. This species has a solitary life form and grows to approximately three meters.
