Cat Palm
Best low-maintenance greenery for pet owners seeking a tropical aesthetic.
This is the rare palm that delivers a lush, tropical aesthetic without the typical high-maintenance demands of indoor greenery. It is entirely pet-safe and surprisingly resilient, though you will need to provide a spot with bright, indirect light to keep those feathery fronds from losing their vibrancy.
