🌴 § Madagascariensis — Traveller’s Palm

Ravenala madagascariensis, commonly known as the Traveller’s Palm, is a spectacular tropical plant native to Madagascar, known for its fan-shaped arrangement of giant, banana-like leaves that emerge in a single plane from a central stem. Despite its name, it is not a true palm, but rather part of the Strelitziaceae family, making it a close relative of the Bird of Paradise. Its architectural form, upright habit, and sheer scale make it a favourite for tropical landscaping and large, bright indoor or conservatory spaces. The common name comes from the legend that thirsty travellers could pierce the plant’s leaf bases to drink the rainwater stored inside. In cultivation, Ravenala madagascariensis is valued for its symmetry, bold foliage, and tropical grandeur, often used as a living sculpture in contemporary plant displays. While it prefers warm, humid environments and full sun, it can be grown indoors with adequate light and space.


☀️ Light Requirements

  • Outdoors: Thrives in full sun to partial shade. Best form develops in open light.

  • Indoors: Requires bright, indirect light or a conservatory position with high natural light.

  • Too little light: Results in weak, slow growth and drooping foliage.


🌡️ Temperature & Humidity

  • Ideal temperature: 20–30°C (68–86°F)

  • Minimum temperature: Keep above 12°C (54°F); not frost-hardy

  • Humidity: Prefers moderate to high humidity. Benefits from misting or a humidifier if grown indoors in dry air.


💧 Watering Needs

  • Watering frequency: Water regularly to keep the soil consistently moist but not soggy.

  • Summer: Requires more frequent watering, especially in hot, sunny conditions.

  • Winter: Reduce watering slightly when light levels and temperatures drop.

  • Tip: Allow the top few centimetres of soil to dry slightly before watering again.


🪴 Soil & Repotting

  • Soil type: Rich, well-draining compost with good water retention. A mix of houseplant compost, loam, and perlite is ideal.

  • pH: Neutral to slightly acidic (6.0–7.0)

  • Repotting: Every 2–3 years or when the plant becomes pot-bound. Use a large, heavy container for stability.


🌱 Feeding

  • Growing season (spring–summer): Feed every 2–4 weeks with a balanced liquid fertiliser.

  • Autumn–winter: Reduce feeding or pause during periods of slow growth.


✂️ Pruning & Maintenance

  • Pruning: Remove old or damaged leaves at the base as needed to maintain the plant’s clean form.

  • Leaf care: Wipe down with a soft, damp cloth to remove dust if grown indoors.

  • Growth habit: Upright and symmetrical; the fan-like leaf arrangement becomes more dramatic as it matures.


🌾 Propagation

  • By division: Propagate via basal offsets (pups) when repotting.

  • Seed: Possible, but very slow and unreliable outside of tropical climates.


🐛 Pests & Problems

  • Common pests: Spider mites, mealybugs, and scale insects — especially in dry, indoor environments.

  • Symptoms: Browning edges, curling leaves, or visible pests.

  • Treatment: Wipe affected leaves and treat with neem oil or insecticidal soap.

  • Common issues:

    • Leaf tearing: Natural due to wind or movement; not typically a health concern.

    • Yellowing or wilting leaves: Usually a sign of overwatering or root restriction.


🧤 Toxicity & Safety

  • Toxicity: Non-toxic to pets and humans.

  • Handling tip: The leaf bases can store water; empty if stagnant water collects to prevent rot or pests.


🏡 Indoor & Outdoor Care Highlights

  • A show-stopping architectural specimen for tropical gardens, large atriums, or bright conservatories.

  • Ideal for poolside displays, exotic courtyard planting, or container growing in summer (move indoors in winter).

  • Pairs beautifully with Strelitzia nicolai, Alocasia ‘Regal Shields’, or Banana Musa for a jungle feel.

  • Makes an excellent statement piece in high-ceilinged interiors or glasshouses with good humidity and warmth.

  • Grows large over time — best suited for committed plant keepers or show gardens.

Chuckit medium rebound balls
Size: Medium
My 8 month old German shepherd dog loves these balls. They are easy to throw, they bounce great, they are very chewable! She keeps one in her mouth most of the time. It satisfies her need to chew and she does not chew other things. She drops it in the water and lets the hole fill up and drinks that way. The only problem that has caused is suction in her mouth and difficulty in dislodging it for her. However, she would be lost without it!

These are definitely indestructible
Size: Medium
Both of my dogs can destroy a ball in a matter of minutes if I let them play with them (supervised) as is. Well not with these balls. They are the ONLY ones I have found that are 100% indestructible. Please only let your dogs play with these as a toy when supervised though. They go really far when throwing them, so both dogs get a good amount of running and exercise with these. I also bought these because they have the hole in the middle of the ball which is very important in the event that a dog gets one stuck at the back of their throat. This allows them to breath unlike those without this hold. It's an unlikely event, but as dog owners, we all need to be aware of this and educate ourselves on what to do if this SHOULD happen. This isn't a scare tactic, nor a reflection of this particular brand, it can happen with any type of ball. My two dogs are about 45ish lbs and the size is perfect for them, I don't want anything smaller than this. They love them. There is no annoying squeak. Really easy to wash after use. Some balls take forever to get the slimy saliva off, but these don't.
