Pachypodium lamerei, commonly known as the Madagascar Palm, is a striking succulent tree native to Madagascar, characterized by its thick, spiky trunk and crown of slender, arching leaves. This unique plant can grow up to 10 feet tall in ideal conditions, making it an eye-catching centerpiece in gardens or indoor spaces. The leaves are glossy green and can reach lengths of up to 12 inches, adding a tropical feel to any setting. Although it’s called a “palm,” it is actually a member of the Apocynaceae family and is related to the plumeria. It thrives in bright, indirect light and prefers well-draining soil, requiring minimal watering during its dormant winter months. With its exotic appearance and low maintenance requirements, Pachypodium lamerei is a favorite among succulent enthusiasts.
