The Madagascar palm (Pachypodium lamerei) is not related to true palms at all. This unusual plant is actually a succulent shrub in the Apocynaceae dogbane family within the Pachypodium genus.


Native to southern Madagascar, this tropical species is a tender perennial hardy to USDA Zones 9 through 11. Often grown as a houseplant, it can also be overwintered indoors in cooler climates.


On a single thick grey trunk, the stems are thick and thorny. The leathery, deciduous foliage is blue-green to dark green. Terminal clusters of yellow-throated white flowers bloom as soon as late spring to early summer. Petals spiraling, each flower measures about four inches across. The aromatic flowers are usually white, but can sometimes be yellow, pink, or red.

When established outdoors in the ground, the plant's slender, straight spindly trunk can reach up to 24 feet high with spirally arranged leaves at the top. When grown indoors, it remains much smaller, at most six feet tall. This shrub rarely produces branches.


Madagascar palm matures within 10 or more years' time. Large plants tend to bloom in summer, while smaller, younger plants rarely bloom.

Madagascar Palm Care
Your Madagascar palm needs a space 36 to 48 inches wide. Establish it in the ground or as potted plants on a patio or indoors. Grow this plant indoors year-round in mild-winter locations.

Where temperatures are warmer, cultivate in a clay pot (not a plastic one) outside in summer. Selecting a container with proper drainage holes will help avoid root rot.

Light
Grow your Madagascar palm under in full light and fairly warm temperatures. Indoors, set in a south or west-facing window.

Soil
Madagascar palm can adapt to a variety of well-drained soils. It will grow in the sandy soil of old dunes near the sea, in limestone, schists, etc. For best results, plant in cactus compost. Maintain a mildly acidic to mildly alkaline pH between 6.1 and 7.8.

Water
Allow the soil to dry between waterings in spring and summer. Expect leaves to drop in winter unless specimens are grown in south Florida or indoors where plants may keep their foliage.

Whenever the surface soil becomes dry, water more. Water just to maintain dry/mesic soil moisture. Water less once your Madagascar palm is established and even less in winter.

Fertilizer
Feed the tree a general-purpose liquid houseplant fertilizer diluted to half-strength at the start of spring and the beginning of summer, or a low nitrogen liquid fertilizer every four to five weeks.

Whether grown indoors or outdoors, do not fertilize in fall or winter. Continue watering and feeding whenever new growth shows.

With proper care, Madagascar palms will grow around 12 inches per year when happily and healthily.

Is the Madagascar Palm toxic?
All parts of the plants are toxic for humans and pets.

Symptoms of poisoning
The Madagascar palm has a highly toxic sap that has actually been used to create poisonous arrows since ancient times in Africa. If ingested by pets, the glycosides can cause gastric upsets, inappetence, heart arrhythmias and lethargy. If ingested in large enough quantities it can be fatal.

In humans, symptoms can include finger swelling and severe pain.

Pruning
Pruning is not usually needed for a Madagascar palm. Even so, the plant actually has incredible regenerative properties. While this species typically grows a single trunk, sometimes it will branch after flowering or after the main stem is injured.

To maintain a smaller size or to try to induce branching, prune the tree with care. Slice the top with a sterile knife, saw, or shears to prevent infection.

Propagating Madagascar Palm
In late spring, propagate by seed at 66-75°F (19-24°C) or take stem-tip cuttings. Soak seeds for at least 24 hours in warm water. Be patient, as the Madagascar palm tends to sprout quite slowly, anywhere from three weeks to six months.

For quicker results, break off a piece of new shoots above the base. Allow shoots to dry for a week. Then plant in a well-draining soil mix.

Common Pests/Diseases
This species is relatively disease resistant though it is vulnerable to aphids while flowering.

Keep an eye out for cassava whitefly and lance nematode. If it does show signs of pest infestation or disease, remove the parts that are damaged.

Really great ball
Our yo German Shepard loves this ball. She can get hold of it on all sides. Really a tough toy. Hasn’t chewed it up. Loves to toss it herself.

Brilliant Ball
This is my dog, Sunnie, favorite toy besides a mostly flat basketball. The toy has some weight to it, but it isn’t too heavy for her (she’s a husky mix, maybe 25lbs and is 6-months old). The ball is the perfect size for medium and large dogs, has a lot of bounce, and is easy for Sunnie to pick up with her mouth because the open holes. The quality is good, worth more than it costs. It’s easy to clean. I’d buy many more, but this ball seems like it’ll last a lifetime.

Almost indestructible would recommend
I have owned the Monster K9 Indestructible Ball for one and a half years, and it has proven to be the most durable ball I have used for my German Shepherd. Out of all the balls we have tried, this one has lasted the longest under frequent, heavy chewing. Although my dog has finally managed to chew through it, I remain very satisfied with the product’s overall longevity and performance. I would definitely recommend purchasing this ball to other dog owners, especially those with strong chewers. It has provided exceptional play value over an extended period of time. One area for improvement is the warranty process. While the product advertising mentions a free replacement, there is no clear guidance on how to submit a claim, and I found it difficult to locate that information. Providing straightforward instructions for warranty claims would enhance the overall customer experience. Overall, this is a high-quality, long-lasting ball that I would recommend, particularly for large or powerful dogs.

So far, so good!
Finally! A toy my 55 pound, 18 month old puppy hasn’t destroyed in minutes, and one she actually LOVES playing with. It has a really cool bounce and she loves chasing it and it’s easy for her to grab and run back to me with. So glad it wasn’t another waste of money. My only suggestions are to make this in a fun color other than black, and to make other just as strong toys besides a donut (she already has 2 other donuts from different companies which surprisingly have weathered her jaws) and add a squeaker to one of these ultra strong toys. More than chasing the ball, she loves squeaking!

10/10 Great game changer for aggressive chewers
After a scary experience where our Doberman ingested part of a toy and needed emergency surgery, we had to get rid of all plush toys and small balls in our house. Replacing everything felt overwhelming. This ball has been fantastic. It’s truly built for aggressive chewers and holds up incredibly well. It’s perfect for fetch, strong enough for tug-of-war, and the bounce is excellent, which keeps our dog fully engaged during self-play when he’s entertaining himself. That unpredictable bounce makes it exciting without being unsafe. Most importantly, it gives us peace of mind. No shredding, no chunks coming off, no felt cover and constant worry about ingestion. Since having to replace all of his previous toys and balls, this one has stood out as the best by far. If you have a large, powerful dog—especially a Doberman—or a dog who destroys toys quickly, this is a must-have. Durable, safe, and genuinely fun. 10/10, highly recommend.
