- The included Houseplant Soil Mix is a lightweight, nutrient-rich blend of materials for moisture retention, combined with perlite and coarse sand for excellent drainage and aeration. Its balanced pH and natural amendments, such as coarse peat and perlite create the ideal environment for healthy roots while mimicking the plant's native habitat, ensuring quick water flow to prevent overwatering.
- Light Requirements: The Buddha Belly Plant thrives in bright, indirect light but can also adapt to moderate light conditions. Avoid placing it in direct sunlight for extended periods, as it may scorch the leaves. Ensure it receives enough light to encourage healthy growth and maintain its striking appearance.
- Watering Frequency: Water the plant when the top 1-2 inches of soil feel dry to the touch. During the growing season (spring and summer), the plant requires more frequent watering, while in the dormant season (fall and winter), water less often. Be sure not to overwater, as this can lead to root rot.
- Physical Characteristics: The Buddha Belly Plant’s most striking feature is its swollen, bulbous base, which stores water and gives the plant its signature "belly." The plant's glossy, deep green, palmate leaves provide a beautiful contrast to its thick trunk. Over time, the plant’s trunk can grow to be quite thick, enhancing its sculptural appeal.
- Temperature Tolerance: This plant prefers warm temperatures and does best in environments between 60-85°F (15-29°C). Avoid placing it in areas where temperatures dip below 50°F (10°C), as it is sensitive to cold drafts.

Testimonials
Natalie"Came in perfect condition--thank you!"
Matthew"Amazing Plants! I was so happy to see these way larger than the plants pictured because I know how slow most cycads grow."
Nathaniel"This is the first time I've ever ordered plants online, so I had no idea what to expect. When I saw the description of 'comes in a 4" growers' pot' I figured I'd be getting some fairly small plants--nope! The bamboo palms were fully 2' tall from root to top leaf, and perfectly healthy. All 5 plants were VERY well secured in their box, to the point that the bottom layer was even spray-foamed to the cardboard! I couldn't ask for a better experience and I'm so excited to see these plants grow. Five stars!"
Trisha"Thrilled with my purchase! This seller went above any beyond! The packaging was very careful, the plants are so much bigger than I expected, and I was given more than what was depicted in the item description. 10/10 all round!"
R"This is SO BEAUTIFUL! Packaging was perfect and efficient, plant was in excellent condition. I'm in love with this plant and I will definitely order more."
