Variegated Rhapis Photos

[rhapis]

I was going through some photos and thought I'd post a small selection of the more

striking examples that I have photographed over the the last few years

Love these variegations. I think Rhapis is more prone to variegation than other palms! I came across a thick bundle of a similar specimen on sale two years back -- with a dozen new clumps. The owner had priced each pup at 10x the price of a big mature specimen which I could not afford so for now I have to be content with photos

Note to self: ......Got to buy more variegated Rhapis

Are variegated rhapis as cold hardy as non-variegated rhapis? I have one that I'm temped to plant in a choice shady spot near my house.

I love these, the Japanese have developed so many different cultivars, collectively they call variegated Rhapis "kannonchiku." I'd love to be able to get one of the variegated, dwarf kannonchiku as a houseplant but I can't find any

They can survive temperatures down to 0 degrees and probably less and also

thrive in the tropics

Id love to get a white variegated one. Here is a few I picked up recently, The lime green one at the bottom is suppose to be pretty rare. I let them get a little to much morning sun and burned a couple leafs, Other wise they hold up a lot better than other variegated palms.

The bottom plant looks like a variety called Ayahime which is not common and is

highly ranked in Japan

Exquisite looking, but so are my wife's quilts. Where are we going with designer hybrid palms ? Highly ranked in Japan ? Where do these palms fit into the objects and mission of the International Palm Society, the very organisation that runs Palmtalk. Would I want one of these ? I'm weak, yes, I'd love to have one.

Hi Marty I have sent quite a few of variegated rhapis to Townsville and they seem

to do quite well
