Hamedorea home. Photo of species, caring for an elegant palm tree

Today, many flower growers choose to decorate their homes with tropical plants. Their exotic look can transform a dull and standard interior into a true oasis. One of the most popular plants of this species is the bamboo palm (chamaedorea seifrizii).

Description of the plant

It belongs to the palm family (Arecaceae). This genus is quite numerous - it includes more than a hundred different different types... The stem reaches two meters in height, and sometimes more, the thickness does not exceed three centimeters. He is naked, with short internodes.

Indoor bamboo palm has feather-shaped leaves. On the central trunk there is a stalk, from which leaves extend. Some of them seem to be glued to the trunk. Their width can vary. The leaves are grouped in bunches, like bouquets, or spread wide.

Hamedorea (bamboo palm) does not always have a single trunk. Quite often there are specimens with three or more trunks (experts call them multichannel).

This plant is dioecious. In other words, any sprout can be either male or female, and needs pollination. Male flowers more branched, they distribute pollen capable of fertilizing the seeds of female plants. Female flowers are not too branchy.

The trunk of the plant is green, with rings along its entire length. They appear in places of removed leaves. The trunk is erect, but may tilt slightly when ripe.

The homeland of Hamedorea is Central and South America, Mexico.

Kinds

Of the variety of types of palm trees, flower growers most often grow several types in their homes.

- Hamedorea is graceful. Many flower lovers have liked this indoor palm tree. A completely unpretentious plant, with 8 pairs of feathery leaves, located on two-meter shoots, with beautiful pale yellow flowers that emit a pleasant aroma. This bamboo palm tree grows and develops well in a shaded area. Caring for her is simple. The plant is suitable for a beginner in floriculture.

- Monochrome chamedorea- another unpretentious flower that develops beautifully in the shade. This plant can have a trunk up to three meters high. Outwardly, this flower is very reminiscent of the graceful chamedorea. The only difference is the elongated and thinner leaves.

- Hamedorea Ernest-August- one of the smallest palm trees. It has whole bilobed leaves and bright orange flowers. This bamboo palm has aerial roots located at the nodes of the stems. The plant is very impressive, so growers willingly grow it.

- Hamedorea high- the largest bamboo palm. Indoor chamedorea high can reach five meters in height. She has long branches, densely covered with leaves.

How to care for a bamboo palm tree?

Novice florists should know what it is shade-loving plant... It develops much better in moderate rather than bright lighting. Hamedorea does not like direct sunlight, and can be severely damaged if exposed to them. The leaves will begin to turn yellow and fall off. The best place for such an indoor flower are windows facing west or east.

Temperature

Palm trees prefer moderate temperatures. In summer, the most comfortable temperature for them is +23 degrees, in winter it is not higher than +18 degrees. In summer, it is recommended to take the plant out to the balcony (in the shade) or to the garden. With the onset of cold weather, it must be placed away from heating appliances.

What should be the humidity of the air?

Spraying is very fond of the bamboo palm. Home care (you see the photo in our article) involves spraying in hot weather (and in heating season) 2 times a day. For this, it is better to use filtered or rainwater room temperature.

Watering

An indoor palm tree needs abundant watering. But there is one caveat - watering is carried out only after the topsoil (3 cm) is completely dry. Moisturizing is performed no more than three times a week.

Top dressing

In spring and summer (during the growing season), hamedorea requires feeding every two weeks. For this, drugs are used for dracaena or palm crops. During the dormant period (autumn and winter), it is not recommended to fertilize the plant. It must be remembered that timely and competent feeding has a great impact on the appearance of the plant, its flowering.

Transfer

It is best to transplant the bamboo palm in early spring. To do this, you need a potting soil for palm crops. You can also use universal, but perlite or vermiculite should be added to it. These additives will loosen the soil, making it lighter. Drainage is laid out at the bottom of the pot. For transplantation, a container with a diameter of three centimeters larger than the previous one is usually used.

Young hamedorea are transplanted every year or a maximum of a year later. This will largely depend on how active root system plants will fill the pot. Adult plants are transplanted no more than once every three or four years. Plants that grow in large tubs are not transplanted. It is enough for them to change the topsoil.

Pruning and flowering

Chamedorea does not need regular pruning to form a bush. For prophylaxis, yellowed and dried flowers and leaves should be removed.

A healthy, well-groomed chamedorea can bloom at any time of the year. The flowers of the bamboo palm tree (depending on the variety) can be light yellow and orange-red and shade. Women's flowers have a delicate pleasant scent, while men's flowers have no scent.

Reproduction

It can be done in two ways - by seeds and root suckers.

Experienced growers consider the second method to be the most effective. But most hobbyists grow it beautiful plant from seeds, however, it should be borne in mind that they can lose germination rather quickly - almost ten percent per month. Therefore, they must be planted immediately after purchase.

The seeds must be soaked in water for a week and the fleshy and then their hard shell must be removed. You will need disposable cups and potting soil. Fill the planting container with it and water well. One seed is planted in each glass. Cover the seedlings plastic wrap and provide them high humidity.

For active growth and development, the sprouts need the following conditions: temperature +25 ̊С, high humidity, airing once a day, diffused, but bright light. If these conditions are met, after six months, the palm will begin to sprout. When the sprouts reach 3-4 cm, they must be transplanted into pots with a medium for an adult plant.

Possible difficulties

Hamedorea, like other palm plants, is susceptible to disease and pests. But most common reason palm disease is improper care.

In a room with too dry air, chamedorea begins to dry, its leaves turn yellow. Excess moisture, like low temperatures, can provoke rotting of the root system. V winter time watering the plant should be reduced and protected from hypothermia.

Should you grow chamedorea?

Bamboo palm relieves the air in the house from carbon dioxide filling the premises with oxygen. This is a real find for people living in apartments with windows overlooking the highway, since it is able to neutralize poisonous substances (trichlorethylene, benzene) that get into the air from exhaust gases.

The aesthetic factor must also be taken into account. The bamboo palm tree with its exotic look will perfectly complement any interior, decorate your apartment, add extravagance to it. And if we consider that some varieties emit a pleasant aroma during the flowering period, then the presence of this plant in the house becomes fully justified.

We have already mentioned that caring for chamedorrhea is quite simple. Therefore, beginner growers can also grow this plant. It is enough just to follow the simple rules of growing chamedorea, and it will respond to your concern, demonstrating its excellent health and beautiful flowering.

Instructions

Young hamedorea are transplanted annually in early spring, but in general, both adult and young plants are better not to disturb without the need to disturb. Transplanting is carried out only when necessary, when the roots occupy all the free space in the pot and begin to raise the palm tree above its surface, while sprouting from the drainage holes. In spite of this, new pot taken with a diameter of no more than 3 cm larger than the previous one. Preference is given to deep and narrow pots, since the roots of chamedorea grow in length. Be sure to put on the bottom of the pot good layer drainage, 3-4 cm. Expanded clay balls or pebbles, gravel can be used as drainage. Before use, it is recommended to boil these materials for disinfection for about an hour, then dry them and use them as directed.

During transplantation, the roots are disturbed as little as possible, you do not need to straighten them, cut or clean them, shake out the old soil from them. Palms do not like this very much, they adapt for a long time even after the most accurate transplant, and if the roots are dented or damaged, chamedorea can become seriously ill or even die. When transplanting a previously flooded plant with rotten roots, you will have to rinse all the roots, cut off the rot and sprinkle everything with crushed coal, trying to keep the movement of roots to a minimum. A ready-made mixture for palm trees is well suited as a soil, or they prepare the substrate on their own. To do this, you need sod land, humus, sand and peat in a ratio of 2: 2: 2: 1. Chamedorea also grows well in a mixture of equal parts of vermiculite, leafy earth, humus and coniferous earth. The mixture should not be heavy, if, while observing all proportions, it still sticks together, add sand or vermiculite until the optimal consistency is reached.

Immediately before, the chamedorea is watered less to make it easier to remove from the pot. To extract chamedorrhea and at the same time damage and disturb its roots as little as possible, it is best to turn the pot with it to one side, and, holding the leaves, roll it sideways on the floor for a while, tapping the walls. Thus, the roots and soil will be neatly separated from the walls and, taking by the base, the palm tree can be easily removed. If many roots have penetrated drain holes and messed up outside them, it will be more difficult to extract the plant. To do this, you will either need to cut the bottom of the previous container with the risk of damaging the roots or cut them off, or untangle and remove each root by hand. After the plant has been removed, it is placed in a new pot strictly in the center and the earth is carefully poured into the free space from the sides and slightly from above, about 1-2 cm.The soil cannot be tamped, as it is watered it will settle naturally, and then you need to add a new one. After transplanting, the chamedorea is not touched for about a week, being limited to more abundant sprays than usual, after which they begin to water a little.
