Bamboo palm Also known as the parlor palm, the bamboo palm (Chamaedorea seifrizii) is a hardy, low-maintenance air purifying plant with a high shade tolerance. Its waxy green leaves might be tempting for a plant-partaking pet, and that's perfectly fine. Bamboo palm plants are safe for dogs and cats.

Sunlight: Bamboo palms prefer part sun but can manage fine in full shade. Make sure to plant your bamboo palm in well-drained soils. While these plants like to remain consistently moist, they don't tolerate standing water; 1-3 waterings a week should do the trick.

Bamboo Palm Care: Water the plant until the soil is evenly moist. Don't over water the palm plant or leave it sitting in water. Check often to be sure that the plant is draining properly. Caring for bamboo palms also involves using a time-release fertilizer during the growing season.
