Pachypodium Rutenbergianum 210mm

Pachypodium rutenbergianum – Rare Madagascar Palm Succulent Tree

Add bold structure and tropical flair to your plant collection with Pachypodium rutenbergianum, a striking succulent tree native to Madagascar. Commonly known as the Madagascar Palm, this rare species features a tall, spiny trunk crowned with a cluster of long, narrow green leaves, creating an impressive palm-like silhouette.

Larger and faster-growing than the popular Pachypodium lamerei, this variety can reach tree-like proportions in the right conditions, making it a show-stopping feature for both modern interiors and warm-climate gardens.

Despite its exotic appearance, Pachypodium rutenbergianum is surprisingly hardy and low-maintenance, making it a favorite among succulent enthusiasts and rare plant collectors.

Key Features:

• Tall, upright trunk with striking spines
• Tropical crown of narrow green leaves
• Hardy, drought-tolerant, and easy to care for
• Perfect for sunny indoor spaces, patios, and protected gardens
• A rare collectible succulent tree from Madagascar

Care Instructions:

• Light: Full sun to bright light
• Water: Deep, infrequent watering—allow soil to fully dry between waterings
• Soil: Fast-draining cactus or succulent mix

Bring home this rare Madagascar succulent tree and create a bold, architectural centerpiece in your plant collection.
