Plants are Healthy, Needs TLC

Fishtail Palm (Caryota mitis)

Common Names in South Africa: Fishtail Palm, Clustering Fishtail Palm, Burmese Fishtail Palm
Overview: Native to Southeast Asia, the Fishtail Palm is a clustering, tropical palm with bipinnate, fishtail-shaped leaves that create a lush, exotic vibe. Ideal for subtropical gardens or as an indoor plant, it grows up to 2.5m indoors and thrives in bright, indirect light.
Quirky Fact: Its leaves look like a fish’s tail fin, giving your space a tropical aquarium feel without the water!
Care for Damaged Leaves: Prune damaged or yellow leaves with clean shears to encourage new growth. With proper care, including humidity and light, recovery typically takes 3–5 weeks.
Safety Note: Fruits contain calcium oxalate crystals, toxic if ingested and irritating to skin. Keep away from pets and children.

What would you like to see:

To ensure fresh and healthy plants we follow a strict weekly shipping schedule: 

Mondays: We prepare plants for shipping! This means wrapping the soil, adding plant sleeves, and one last pre-travel watering. 
Tuesdays: We wake up bright and early to get all plants carefully packaged for shipping in the morning, in the afternoon we hand over plants with the longest travel ahead of them to our courier partners (this means Eastern, Western and Northern Cape)
Wednesdays: If there are any plants that did not fit in the Tuesday truck, they travel in the second batch on a Wednesday. 
Thursdays and Fridays: No plants are shipped, we carefully monitor all the travelling plant babies to ensure they arrive safely at their new homes ! 

Why do we do this? 

Our shipping schedule works this way to ensure that your plants are less likely to spend a weekend in the courier depot ! Our shipping schedule is designed this way to ensure that your plants are fresh and healthy, for this same reason we do not like keeping stock for extended periods of time which means that stock received on Thursdays and Fridays will only be shipped the following week.
