Pachypodium Meridionale
Pachypodium meridionale, also known as the Madagascar Palm, is a striking succulent tree native to the arid regions of southern Madagascar. This magnificent plant boasts a tall, cylindrical trunk that can reach up to 16 feet (5 meters) in height, resembling a palm tree with its crown of spiky leaves. The trunk is covered in a silvery-grey bark and adorned with prominent thorns, adding to its dramatic appeal.
During the warmer months, the Madagascar Palm produces clusters of long, narrow, deep green leaves at the tips of its branches. These leaves create a beautiful contrast against the silvery trunk and spiny thorns. In the spring and summer, the plant produces stunning clusters of bell-shaped, pink flowers that add a touch of elegance to its already striking appearance.
Pachypodium meridionale is a drought-tolerant succulent, requiring minimal watering and well-draining soil. It thrives in full sun exposure and warm temperatures, making it an ideal choice for xeriscaping or container gardening in arid climates.
The succulent plant housed in the red pot comes in a 130mm diameter container. While the image provides a representative depiction of what you will receive, but may vary slightly because no two succulents are the same.
