I live in southeast florida. There are palms that will grow indoors, but will need bright light, indoors.

You may consider palms we use in the deep deep south in our malls.

A preserved palm, as opposed to a living and/or artificial palm, is composed externally of organic tree materials that are treated then expertly fashioned to recreate a real-life replica of a specific type of palm tree. While the trunk is hollow except for a structural core of steel or plastic pipe, nothing on the tree surface is artificial. Everything seen, touched or smelled is derived only from living trees: bark that has been peeled and real fronds that have been removed from living palm trees.

While a preserved tree has a higher purchase price, a variety of factors drive the cost well below that of a living specimen. For example, a 20-foot fan palm which costs about $2,000 (or $100 per linear foot). A comparable living palm would cost about $1,000.

The only company I know of that provides the preserved tree option is , Preserved TreeScapes International.

Most palms that will live indoors, will be from a list of palms that are grown naturally outdoors in the shade. Most shade growing palms are short palms to 6-8 ft or smaller. because they are the palms that are growing naturally at the bottom of the canopy in a tropical forest.

just something to consider... If you provide the conditions needed for growing indoor
palms you may consider Alexander palms, Lady Palms, Lipstick or wine-red Palms

you would have to provide bright light indoors. watering and fertilizing, insect controls etc...

I hope this helps you ---Seedling 3-09-05
