Cyrtostachys renda – the Lipstick Palm or Red sealing wax palm

Cyrtostachys renda is one of the most exotic and striking palms in the world, famous for its glossy red leaf stalks and trunks that look as if they were dipped in bright lipstick – hence its popular names “Lipstick Palm” or “Sealing Wax Palm.” Its natural habitat includes the tropical swamps and coastal forests of Sumatra, Borneo, Malaysia, and Southern Thailand, where it is considered a symbol of prestige and beauty.

In the wild, Cyrtostachys renda forms elegant clumps of not very tall stems and is cherished both in private gardens and as an accent in parks and public landscapes. In tropical Asia, it is often regarded as a symbol of prosperity, while in floristry its vivid red leaf stalks are a true attraction.

The plants offered for sale are three years old and have been grown in our nursery here in Bulgaria. Some of them have already started to produce offshoots. The first one to two years are the most difficult when cultivating this palm species. A larger plant develops a significantly stronger root system and grows better under our conditions.

Cultivation at home:

• Light: prefers bright, indirect light; should not be exposed to direct midday sun.

• Temperature: a warmth-loving palm from the equatorial climate, sensitive to cold. Year-round warm conditions are optimal, as temperatures below 20°C may cause damage.

• Watering: loves moisture and does not tolerate drought. The soil should be kept evenly moist.

• Soil reaction: requires acidic soil. Regular fertilization with iron sulfate is necessary several times a year. In areas with calcareous (lime-rich) water, fertilization with iron sulfate should be done once a month at a concentration of 3–4 g per liter of water.

• Humidity: high air humidity is essential for maintaining its beautiful appearance.

• Growth: slow-growing, but steady under the right conditions.

Cyrtostachys renda is not easy to cultivate outside the tropics, but if provided with sufficient warmth, moisture, and light, it rewards the grower with unmatched ornamental value. This is a plant that does not simply decorate a home, but transforms any space into a true tropical oasis.

Pandanus amaryllifolius – the aromatic secret of Southeast Asia

Pandanus amaryllifolius is an evergreen plant from the genus Pandanus – a large family of over 700 species, commonly known as “screw pines” because of the characteristic spiral arrangement of their leaves. In nature, some members of the genus grow to the size of trees and are used for weaving, construction, and even as natural fragrances. Our humble Pandanus amaryllifolius, however, is most highly valued in the kitchen – its leaves carry a unique aroma that lies at the heart of traditional gastronomy in Thailand, Malaysia, and Indonesia. This species was developed through centuries of human selection and is not known in the wild. Unlike its wild relatives, the edible pandan has no spines on its leaves.

Interestingly, the scent of the raw leaves is quite concentrated and, to the untrained nose, can even resemble smelly socks. But this is exactly where the plant’s magic lies – once cooked, the aroma transforms completely. Pandan leaves are used in many of Asia’s best-known dishes, including the famous mango sticky rice. Just a few leaves added to a large pot of rice impart the characteristic Asian flavor and fragrance, turning a simple meal into a remarkable culinary experience with a delicate, sweet aroma often compared to vanilla and jasmine.

Growing at home:

• Light: prefers bright, indirect light (east, north, or west-facing window).

• Temperature: a warmth-loving plant; does not tolerate temperatures below 18°C.

• Watering: moisture-loving; the soil should be kept consistently moist but not waterlogged.

• Humidity: higher humidity is beneficial, but the plant also grows well in normal household conditions.

Pandanus amaryllifolius forms a compact rosette of fresh green leaves – a beautiful ornamental plant that combines exotic appearance with practical use in the kitchen.
