Chamaedorea Elegans Parlour Palm – 13cm Pot Indoor Plant
Add natural elegance to your home with the Chamaedorea Elegans Parlour Palm, a classic and stylish indoor plant known for its soft, feathery foliage and compact growth. This attractive Chamaedorea plant fits perfectly on shelves, desks, window ledges and small living spaces, bringing a fresh tropical feel to any interior.
Why Choose a Parlour Palm (Parlourpalm)?
The Parlour Palm has long been appreciated for its elegant appearance and its ability to thrive indoors. It is well known for coping with lower light levels, making it an ideal choice for homes and offices that do not receive direct sunlight. Its tropical foliage creates a calming, lush atmosphere, helping to improve the feel of any indoor environment.
Easy Care Indoor Plant
The Chamaedorea plant is perfect for beginners or anyone looking for a low-maintenance houseplant. It prefers bright, indirect light but will tolerate shade, making placement flexible. Watering is simple: allow the top layer of soil to dry slightly between waterings and avoid overwatering. A warm, humid environment helps the plant thrive, but it remains resilient in typical household conditions.
Ideal for Home and Office
This Chamaedorea Elegans Parlour Palm suits a wide range of interior styles, from modern minimalist to traditional décor. Its compact size makes it an excellent choice for desks, side tables and shelves, and it also works well as a thoughtful gift for plant lovers who enjoy easy-care indoor greenery.
Key Information
This product includes a healthy Chamaedorea Elegans Parlour Palm supplied in a 13cm plastic pot with an approximate height of 20–40cm. The ceramic pot shown is not included. The plant offers a low-maintenance, attractive indoor option and is part of the popular parlourpalm family, known for enhancing indoor spaces with minimal effort.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will my plant arrive healthy and alive?
Yes! Every plant is hand-selected and carefully packed to arrive healthy. If your plant arrives damaged or in poor condition, contact us within 48 hours with a picture, and we’ll replace or refund it — no worries.
How are the plants packaged for shipping?
We use custom, eco-friendly boxes that keep your plant snug and protected. Each pot is wrapped to prevent soil spillage, and leaves are cushioned for a safe trip.
How long will shipping take?
We ship orders within 12 hours on working days. Delivery usually takes [1-2 days] depending on your location. You’ll get a tracking number once your plant ships.
What if my plant dies soon after arrival?
We offer a 30 day healthy plant guarantee. If your plant doesn’t make it despite proper care, send us a photo within that time and we’ll make it right.
Do you ship in cold or hot weather?
Yes, with care! During cold months we use heat packs and insulation; in hot months, we use breathable packaging. If the weather is extreme, we may delay shipping to protect your plant.
Unpacking & First Care
What should I do when my plant arrives?
Unpack it as soon as possible! Remove all wrapping carefully, check the soil moisture, and place the plant in bright, indirect light to help it settle after its journey.
My plant looks a bit droopy after shipping — is that normal?
Yes! Plants can experience mild stress from travel. Give it 2–3 days in gentle light, avoid repotting immediately, and water lightly if the soil is dry. Most plants perk up quickly.
Should I water my plant right after it arrives?
Check the soil first. If it feels dry an inch below the surface, water lightly. If it’s still moist, wait a few days before watering again — overwatering too soon can cause stress.
What if there’s some soil out of the pot or a broken leaf?
Minor soil displacement or leaf damage can happen during transit — it’s normal and doesn’t harm the plant’s health. Gently remove any broken leaves and give the plant a few days to recover.
Can I repot my new plant right away?
It’s best to wait about 2–4 weeks before repotting. This gives the plant time to adjust to its new environment. When ready, use fresh, well-draining soil and a pot with drainage holes.
What’s the best spot to put my new plant?
Most plants prefer bright, indirect light — near a window but not in direct sun. Avoid placing it next to heating vents, air conditioners, or drafty doors.
Houseplant Care Questions
How often should I water my houseplants?
It depends on the type of plant and your home environment. Most prefer the top inch of soil to dry out before watering again. Always check the soil — it’s better to underwater than overwater.
How much light do indoor plants need?
Every plant has its preference:
- Low light: ZZ plant, snake plant, pothos.
- Medium light: Peace lily, philodendron, rubber plant.
- Bright/indirect: Monstera, fiddle leaf fig, succulents.
Avoid harsh midday sun unless your plant is sun-loving.
Why are my plant’s leaves turning yellow or brown?
Yellow leaves = usually overwatering.
Brown tips = often low humidity or too much direct light.
Trim damaged leaves and adjust watering or placement — your plant will bounce back.
Do I need to fertilize my houseplants?
Yes! Feed them once a month during the growing season (spring–summer) with a diluted houseplant fertilizer. Skip feeding in fall and winter when plants rest.
Are your plants pet-safe?
Many of our plants are pet-friendly, but some can be toxic if ingested. Check each product description for safety information before purchasing if you have pets or young children.
When should I repot my plant?
If roots are growing through the drainage holes or the plant dries out quickly after watering, it’s time. Move it to a pot about 1–2 inches wider with fresh soil.
I’m new to plant care — can you help me?
Of course! Every order comes with a simple care guide. You can also explore our Plant Care Library or message our team — we love helping new plant parents succeed.
How do I prevent pests like gnats or mites?
Inspect your plants regularly, avoid overwatering, and wipe leaves with a damp cloth. If pests appear, isolate the plant and treat with a mild soap solution or natural insecticide.
