About Hooker's Red Palm

Chambeyronia macrocarpa 'Hookeri', commonly known as the Hooker's Red Palm or Hooker's Crown Shaft Palm, is a spectacular and eye-catching palm native to the rainforests of New Caledonia. This cultivar is renowned for its striking red crown shaft and vibrant, ornamental appearance.

The palm is characterized by its large, pinnate leaves, which are deep green and gracefully arch from the crown. This variety is relatively slow-growing but can eventually reach a height of 6-12 meters (20-40 feet) in its native habitat. The combination of its vivid crown shaft and elegant foliage makes it a prized addition to landscape design.

Stunning Tropical Beauty: The distinctive bright red crown shaft creates an unforgettable focal point in any garden or tropical landscape. Combined with its graceful green foliage, this palm adds both dramatic visual impact and elegant sophistication to your botanical collection. Perfect for creating show-stopping tropical gardens!

Chambeyronia macrocarpa 'Hookeri' is an excellent choice for gardeners looking to add a show-stopping ornamental palm to their landscape. Its striking appearance, elegant growth habit, and tropical charm make it a highly sought-after addition to premium gardens and botanical collections worldwide.

Cultivation Conditions

Light Requirements

Chambeyronia macrocarpa 'Hookeri' thrives in bright, indirect light or partial shade. It can tolerate some direct sunlight but may require protection from the harsh midday sun to prevent leaf burn. Ideal locations include filtered light conditions or under the canopy of taller trees.

Temperature Preferences

This palm prefers warm, tropical climates with temperatures ranging from 20-30 °C (68-86 °F). It is sensitive to frost and should be protected from temperatures below 10 °C (50 °F). In cooler climates, it is best grown in a container that can be moved indoors or to a sheltered area during winter.

Soil Requirements

The Hooker's Red Palm prefers well-draining, rich soil with good organic content. A mix of loam, sand, and compost is ideal. It can adapt to various soil types but performs best in slightly acidic to neutral conditions. Proper drainage is essential to avoid root rot.

Water Management

Regular watering is crucial, especially during the growing season. Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Allow the top layer of soil to dry slightly between waterings. Reduce watering frequency in the winter or cooler periods when growth slows.

Planting and Care

Planting Location

Choose a location with bright, indirect light or partial shade. Ensure the soil is well-draining and enriched with organic matter. If planting in a container, select a pot with adequate drainage holes and use a well-draining potting mix.

Fertilization Program

Apply a balanced, slow-release fertilizer formulated for palms or general-purpose plants every 4-6 weeks during the growing season. This supports healthy growth and vibrant foliage. Reduce fertilization during winter.

Maintenance and Pruning

Regularly prune dead or damaged fronds to maintain a tidy appearance and promote new growth. Chambeyronia macrocarpa 'Hookeri' is generally resistant to pests and diseases but should be monitored for common issues such as scale insects or spider mites and treated as needed.

Growing from Seeds

Seed Preparation

For best results, use fresh seeds. Soak the seeds in warm water for 24-48 hours to help soften the seed coat and improve germination rates.

Sowing Process

Sow seeds in a well-draining seed-starting mix, such as a blend of peat, perlite, and sand. Plant the seeds about 1-2 cm (0.5-1 inch) deep.

Germination Conditions

Keep the seed tray in a warm, humid environment with temperatures around 25-30 °C (77-86 °F). Maintain consistent moisture without waterlogging. Germination can take several weeks to a few months, so patience is essential.

Seedling Care

Once seedlings emerge, provide them with bright, indirect light and keep the soil consistently moist. Gradually acclimate them to more direct light as they grow. Transplant seedlings into larger pots or directly into the garden when they are large enough to handle.

Beautiful and sturdy
Size: 24 Inch, Color: White
Excellent quality shelves. All hardware came with them and also the stickers to cover the screws. I also placed a plant on one of the shelves and it’s not leaning and again very nice and secure.

Great shelves
Size: 24 Inch, Color: White
Easy to assemble and comes with everything you need for drywall or wood. Nice color and texture and comes with stickers to hide the holes underneath. I bought two sets of three. These are very long, so I recommend just using two at a time.

JAXPETY Room Divider Panel 6Ft Privacy Screen Wall Divider 88" W x 73" H - 3 Panel Black
Color: Black, Size: 3-Panel, Color: Black, Size: 3-Panel
I was looking for a screen to use while making video calls. I am on a budget, wanted something easy to put together, and would hide my apt in the background. Being on a budget, I thought my purchase qualified for the coupon. I was mistaken but contacted the seller. I received a quick response explaining how the coupon was applied. I was happy with the quick response and explanation which I verified when I went back to the page. The once all put together the screens are light weight and fairly easy to move. they do not seem to be made for easy daily breakdown. However, if you should need to take them apart to move or something, easy to break down. Depending on lighting will depend on if you find them transparent. I don't mind possible vague outlines; I was looking so no real details of my belongings in the background could be seen (shelves; figurines; etc.) My apt living room has no overhead light source, so floor lamps give light. In the 3 photos of 2 of the screens put together; the first is with a lamp in front and back of the screen as well as a tv on. The next has the tv off lamps still on and the screen reflecting the pc monitors. The third is with both lamps and the tv off, monitors on but not as reflective. In the box, you have all the parts you need as well as a small tool and an instruction manual. Item 'bags' are number [though they may come off in the box] to assist with assembly. Now assembly can be easy or hard depending on your abilities and the area you are working in. I have bad knees, so kneeling was not an option for me. My first attempt to put this together, I put the 'feet bases' on while still connecting the top bar. It made it twice as hard, and I stretched the fabric more than was necessary causing wholes around some of the stitching and stretching them a little. As well as causing some stitching to come undone on one of the pictured areas. Once I took off the 'feet bases', I had an easier time to screwing in the top bars. You will still need some hand strength, which I don't have much of, but it is possible. I use the grip things to open pickles jars. Once the screens were assembled, I followed the instructions of tying an outer screen to the inner screen and using the Velcro 'privacy flaps' to complete the connection. I have what I think is low shag carpeting which they were able to stand stably on once I wiggled them into standing straight up and in place. Given these post pandemic times, I am overall happy with both the divider and the price. The 2 things I do not like about the divider is the difficulty putting in the top bar [after connecting the top and sides] and storability when not in use issue I am having. Others with larger space will likely not have the last issue.

100% worth it - I recommend to EVERYONE
I've seen coworkers and instructors using folding screens behind them for video calls since the pandemic started, and I finally gave in and purchased this one. I freaking LOVE it. I love that I can be on a video call and not have to worry about the angle of my laptop or having people 'in' my home while I'm at work. It's so nice. I may eventually buy and deconstruct a wall hanging to create some colorful fabric panels instead of the brown, but (and I say this as NOT a brown fabric-lover) the brown looks pretty nice. It's a very dark brown, and it serves as completely neutral while still feeling a bit warm. - No need for tools to assemble, even though it says screwdriver. - One thing: I thought it would fold up flat, and it does NOT fold up flat. Important to know. I just keep it folded up into a 16.5" (grabbed a tape measure to check) square column by my desk and unfold whenever I have video conferences. If you can't tell, I really like having this thing around. 100% recommend and would buy again.

it's a utility screen
Color: Black, Size: 3-Panel
It's a basic, utilitarian screen. It's what I expected it to be. Assembly isn't hard, but it does require two people when stretching the fabric between the poles. I got it to use in a closet to separate the water heater from the washer/dryer, so it'll be perfect for that. Pros: it's opaque and tall (my 6'4" husband can't see over it unless he is standing against it) and I like the ability for the three pieces to stand separately of each other. Cons: it's flimsy. It wobbles and will tip over easily.
