Licuala Peltata PalmThe lesser known Licuala Peltata is a timeless, show stopping plant. Similar to the Licaua Grandis, this plant has a crown of broad, pleated, and fan shaped leaves. However, the Licuala Peltata has splits in its leaves appearing star like. Native to Southeast Asia, Australia, and the Pacific Islands, this palm loves humidity. It does best in bright, indirect light. While it can handle some dappled sunlight, too much direct sun will scorch the leaves!
