Pachypodium rutenbergianum

This tree-pachypodium is slender in youth, with a thin, straight trunk and a graceful rosette of long, arching glossing leaves. Young plants show this "palm-like structure". As age goes on, the main trunk branches as a a tree and swells at the base. It is distributed in C and W Madagascar. The plant we offer is 50-90 cm tall.
