Hawaiian Palm Plant (Brighamia insignis)

Hawaiian Palm Plant (Brighamia insignis)

This Hawaiian native makes a beautiful indoor plant. It has a thickened caudex that holds water for periods of drought and a rosette of fleshy leaves at the top of the plant giving Hawaiian Palm its other common name, Cabbage on a Stick. An abundance of fragrant flowers, that smell like honeysuckle, appear in fall usually September through November. Grow in full to partial sun and allow the soil to dry to the touch between waterings. Over-watering can harm the plant. Hawaiian Palm has a rest period in the summer when it goes dormant and can drop some leaves but growth and flowering resume in fall. In Hawaiian culture, this plant is used in weddings to bring good luck to the couple.
