Chambeyronia

'hookeri'

All palms are shipped bare-root wrapped in moist sphagnum moss to ensure the plant’s healthy transit to you.

After your new palms arrive, pot them in your new container using a fast draining potting mix and water generously. Plant your new palm at the same soil height as it was before being unearthed. The very top of the roots should be visible a little bit. Do not cover the trunk or crown shaft with the potting mix.

New potted seedlings will be sun-sensitive. Keep in a shadey spot out of the full sun.

Aloha, and good growing.

   A native of New Caledonian forests of low altitude and high rainfall, Chambeyronia hookeri is one of the most beautiful palms in cultivation. It is suitable for moist sub-tropical and tropical climates.    

      Chambeyronia hookeri is a graceful plant, with a slender gold trunk and   crown with only a few arching fronds. Flowers are pink to cream and the fruit is crimson.

This spectacular palm  is in high demand for landscaping in tropical and sub-tropical areas. It also makes a great house plant for a sunny location.

Combined Discounts Won Auctions

     For 2-3 winning auctions, the combined discount is 10% of the total Shipping and Handling charges. For 4-7 winning auctions, the combined discount is 20% of the total Shipping and Handling charges. For 7+ winning auctions, the combined discount is 30% of the total Shipping and Handling charges.

         As each order is packed and prepared separately you will pay the quoted S/H charges individually per item. If you buy the same species in that item it does calculate out the discount (i.e.: additional item $3.61). My stores' combined shipping is built in for same items rather than a varied selection. Includes postage, USDA certification and inspection, proper packing and delivery to Airport for prompt delivery. I can’t really change any of these. If you want one of this and one of that, it gets hard to discount much as each different species requires it's own prep & packing, then at USDA each has to be unwrapped and inspected then repacked. USDA requires me to clean and prepare every last piece before we drive them to the Inspection Station on the other side of the island. It takes my wife and I, a day to pack items and get ready to ship. The whole next day we drive around the island and get inspected (2-3 hours), then drive to the Airport Post Office to drop off. It takes the same work with the same type item if you can understand.
