| Description | Rhapis excelsa
The Lady Palm is a relatively cold tolerant palm, and will grow well in frost-free temperate climates. They grow best in semi-shaded parts of the garden and indoors. Lady Palms are easy to grow and are quite slow growing. This means they can remain in the same pot for long periods of time.
Lady Palms are ideal as indoor plants, providing greenery and life indoors. They are also excellent air purifiers.

The bark of the Chinese Elm is a real stand out feature, as the tree sheds it in patches, creating the effect of a tapestry of varying browns and greys. Foliage is lush, shiny and green, and the tree is semi deciduous, turning golden in autumn, and keeping its leaves in warmer areas. It has also been noted by many Aussie gardeners in recent years that native birds enjoy the fruit of the Chinese Elm. | Liriope muscari 'Evergreen Giant'
