Pachypodium category pagePachypodiums are a very popular and easy to grow family of caudiciforms. Some species like P. lamerei have tall upright thick spiny stems topped with non-succulent lance-like leaves. These are very popular with Florida growers because they look like palm trees. Other species, such as P. saundersii, have have short fat trunks with short branches. Caring for your pachypodium is very easy. They like regular water during the warm growing season and prefer to stay on the dry side during the cool rest period of winter. Also, remember that when repotting, the current leaves will dry and drop off, to be later replaced by a fresh set of leaves. Pachypodium are very cold sensitive and should be protected from frost.
