Introducing the Madagascar palm, also known as Pachypodium lamerei. This unusual Pachypodium lamerei is sure to spark conversation with its adorable, grey-green leaves and eye-catching white flowers. Madagascar palm is actually a succulent, not a true palm, despite popular belief. 

Pachypodium, which means "thick foot," refers to the plant's thick, swollen stem, which stores water and provides structure and strength to the Madagascar Palm. There are several species, but the two most common are Pachypodium lamerei and Pachypodium geayi.   


Native to Southwest Madagascar, your Pachypodium lamerei Madagascar Palms can reach 24 feet tall and 10 feet wide at maturity and are sure to make a statement wherever they're planted.

The trumpet-shaped flowers of the Madagascar Palm Pachypodium lamerei add a touch of exotic beauty to any space from late spring to summer.

During this bloom time, you can expect to see clusters of vibrant, white, yellow, red, pink, or cream-colored flowers with a delightful fragrance.

Outdoor Madagascar palms are more likely to produce flowers than indoor ones, so use NPK fertilizer in the early spring and prune damaged branches for better blooming.

When and How to Water Your Madagascar Palm  

The Madagascar Palm is a drought-tolerant succulent, well-adapted to dry environments and capable of surviving extended periods without water. While it stores moisture in its thick trunk, this doesn’t mean it should be neglected entirely. Your Madagascar palm plant prefers watering once every 10-14 days during the active growing season, and once every 4-6 weeks during the dormant season.

From spring through early fall, during the active growing season, watering once every 10–14 days is sufficient. Allow the soil to dry out completely between waterings. Always check the top few inches of soil before watering. Consistent but sparse watering encourages healthy growth without risking oversaturation.

From late fall through winter, in the dormant season, the Madagascar Palm slows its growth and requires far less water, about once every 4–6 weeks, or only when the plant shows signs of slight shriveling. Overwatering during dormancy is one of the most common causes of decline, so it's best to err on the dry side until active growth resumes in spring.

Light Requirements - Where to Place Your Madagascar Palm

When growing your Madagascar palm, Pachypodium lamerei, indoors, it prefers bright, indirect light.

Placing it near a window where it can receive plenty of filtered sunlight is ideal. However, be cautious when placing it in direct sunlight, as it can scorch the leaves.

If you notice the leaves turning yellow or brown, it may be a sign that the plant is receiving too much direct sunlight. Consider moving the plant to a location with more shade to prevent further damage.

If you're growing your Madagascar palm outdoors, it is important to grow Pachypodium species in areas that receive at least 4-6 hours of bright, direct light every day to keep them happy. New plants can get burned in the full sun as they were probably grown in a greenhouse; therefore, gradually increase their exposure to sunlight.

Optimal Soil & Fertilizer Needs 

The Madagascar Palm favors very airy, sandy soil that drains well, and should be fertilized once a year in spring. Planting them in ordinary soil will result in compacted roots, stunted growth, and most likely root rot. Instead, make or buy a well-draining potting mix, or ideally use our specialized potting mix that contains 5 natural substrates and mycorrhizae to promote the development of a strong root system that helps your palm plant to thrive.

A small amount of organic fertilizer once a year in the spring will do wonders for your plant's health and growth. Using organic fertilizers with an approximate blend of 5-10-5 (NPK) that is higher in phosphorus than nitrogen also ensures that other beneficial compounds and microbes are added to the soil without the use of harsh chemicals. Show your Madagascar palm some love with awesome natural fertilizer and watch it thrive.

Indoor Growing Madagascar Palm Requirements

If growing indoors, this Pachypodium lamerei prefers a warm environment, ideally between 65°F and 80°F. While it can tolerate brief dips in temperature, it's best to avoid cold drafts, sudden temperature changes, or temperatures below 50°F, which may cause leaf drop or dormancy. Place it near a bright, sunny window, preferably south- or west-facing, to ensure it receives at least 4 to 6 hours of direct sunlight daily. If natural light is limited, supplement with a grow light to maintain its health and compact form.

This plant enjoys moderate humidity, but it is adaptable to average indoor conditions. If your indoor air is especially dry (below 30% humidity), consider using a humidity tray or room humidifier, particularly during winter months when indoor heating reduces moisture in the air.

Hardiness Zone & More 

In the United States, this is mostly an indoor plant, but if you live in southern Florida or Hawaii, then you can cultivate it outdoors in USDA zones 9-11.

These zones generally experience mild winters with temperatures ranging from 30°F to 40°F and above. However, if you live in a region with colder temperatures, you can still enjoy this plant by growing it in a container and bringing it indoors during the winter months.

Madagascar palms are hardy plants that can tolerate a wide range of temperatures and humidity levels. Native to the arid regions of Madagascar, in their natural habitat, they are well-suited to dry, desert-like conditions.

Wildlife - Madagascar Palm Attracts the Following Friendly Pollinators

The Pachypodium lamerei attracts a variety of friendly pollinators, such as butterflies, bees, and hummingbirds, which are drawn to the plant's vibrant flowers and sweet nectar. The presence of these pollinators helps to ensure the continued reproduction and survival of the Madagascar Palm in its natural habitat.

According to ASPCA, the Madagascar Palm Plant is mildly toxic to both humans and pets if ingested in large amounts. It contains toxic components, specifically calcium oxalate crystals, which can cause irritation and swelling upon ingestion or contact.

How to Propagate the Pachypodium lamerei Madagascar Palm 

To propagate the Madagascar palm Pachypodium lamerei, one common method is by stem cuttings. You can take a stem cutting from a healthy, mature plant, let it dry for a few days to form a callus, and then plant it in well-draining soil. 

Another method is propagation by seeds. You can collect the seeds from a mature Madagascar palm and sow them in a suitable potting mix. Keep the soil slightly moist and provide warmth and a bright, indirect, sunny spot for germination. Both methods require some patience and care, but with a little bit of love, you can successfully propagate your own Madagascar palms.

AMAZING!!
This stuff actually WORKS, Y'ALL! I was hopeful when I ordered but didn't totally know what to expect. But after using the entire tube I CAN SAY IT WORKS! I'll be 40 in a couple of weeks. A smoker for almost 25yrs and big time tanaholic and it shows on my face 😟, so I need help. The most noticeable difference is what it did to my crows feet. They're still there BUT NOT when I have just resting face. They show up when I laugh or smile, but if I just have a straight face I have ZERO crows feet now. I used it every night, a few times during the day (maybe like 5× max), but I kept it next to my bed and put it allover my face, with more attention to my eye area. I got it on 11-23 and started using that day. On 12-16 I thought I'd used it all up, so got mad and ordered a different product (same concept, just different brand). But realized I just needed to twist more and I had way more product left 😬. So like I said, I used this from 11-23 every night religiously until I ACTUALLY used it ALL on 1-4. I DO have a noticeable difference in skin texture, smoothness and definite hydration. The scent is barely there and the longevity is good, too. I mean I used this religiously and it lasted almost 6 weeks. The value for the money was great when I ordered it, it costs more now though. It IS a lil greasy, but I was using it at night so I didn't care and it didn't cause any breakouts 🙌🏼 I'm gonna try this new stuff I got since I already ordered it and see how I like it. If not then I'm buying this again for sure! I literally used every last drop 😂 **EDIT TO ADD** I completely forgot to tell y'all what this did to my 11's!!! Idk the proper term, but the deep lines you get on the inside of your brows, especially noticeable when you frown or focus: VERY BIG CHANGE! I'm NOT claiming this will work on everyone but it's done wonders for me! My 11's are still here but they're nowhere as close to what they were! Not as deep or noticeable, soooo much smoother! I ordered a similar product, (different brand) and started using it on 1-5. Today is 1-30 and I'm already out of it so I came back to order THIS again, the Dr. Melaxin Balm stick. It lasts longer and works better than the high-end product that only lasted 25 days. THIS BALM STICK IS WHERE IT'S AT, Y'ALL!!

Great product for dry, sensitive under eyes, however does not really reduce wrinkles
Great moisturizer. While it’s marketed as reversing wrinkles that has not been my experience however I have very thin skin underneath my eyes that is often dry and very dark from allergies. I put this on every day and every night and I have noticed a huge difference in the way, my eyes look. I wouldn’t say it reduces wrinkles, but it definitely is really a great hydrator, especially if you have allergies. It’s very good for sensitive skin. I do use it all over my face, especially around my mouth area as well and again haven’t noticed that it really reduces my wrinkles, but it definitely helps. Hydrate all those sensitive problem areas. I liked it so much. I bought it twice.

Doesn't give instant results like those videos you see but still works good
Ive been seeing so many videos with different people saying how this stuff works instantly on their lines and bags under their eyes. I thought when I got it it was going to be oily because in those videos it literally looks like they have oil on their face. HOWEVER, this is more like a chapstick texture. I tried to use it on my eye bags as soon as I got it but I swear it almost made them look worse. Those videos showing them getting results instantly just aren't true. I've only been using it for a few days and I do see the lines on my forehead & between my eyes are definitely less noticeable so it is doing something so far! My bags however it's just done nothing noticeable for YET. That will probably take a couple weeks to show results. So long story short, if you're thinking about buying this thinking you're going to get the results from those videos going around you'll be disappointed but it does still give results. I will probably update after a couple weeks or however long it takes for my bags under my eyes to go away or to at least see results. My lines on my face aren't very prominent but my bags under my eyes are so we'll see. Also this product isn't greasy I have an oily T zone and this doesn't make my face oily at all. If you don't like how it feels when you rub the stick on your face then use your hands and rub the product in to the skin and it will completely absorb the product.

One of the Most Useful Skincare Products I Own
Title: One of the Most Useful Products for Mature Skin — Smooths, Protects, and Works Beautifully Under Makeup At 52 with post-menopausal dry, mature skin, I’m always looking for products that don’t just sit on the surface, but actually improve how my skin looks and behaves throughout the day. This surprised me in the best way. This is not a treatment product, and it’s important to set that expectation upfront. This is a barrier-supporting, smoothing balm, and when you use it for what it is, it performs exceptionally well. The texture is where it really wins. It’s a solid balm stick, but it glides effortlessly without dragging or pulling on the skin, which is critical for more delicate, mature areas. It melts just enough on contact and leaves behind a smooth, lightweight, conditioned finish that feels nourishing without being greasy or heavy. From a formulation standpoint, this is built around silicones and emollients that give an immediate soft-focus effect, combined with oils and butters that help reinforce the moisture barrier. There’s also adenosine for long-term wrinkle support and collagen extract for conditioning, though this is not going to rebuild collagen or act like a corrective serum. What it does do extremely well is improve the appearance of the skin instantly. It softens fine lines, reduces that dry, crepey look that can show up midday, and adds just enough slip and hydration to make the skin look healthier and more refined. Where I really love this is under makeup. It creates a smooth, hydrated base that helps foundation sit better and prevents it from catching on dry areas. It doesn’t pill, it doesn’t break anything down, and it adds that subtle cushion that mature skin really benefits from. I’ve also used it over makeup for touch-ups, and it works just as well without disturbing what’s underneath. This has quickly become one of those products I keep within reach because it’s so practical. It’s not about transformation — it’s about maintenance, comfort, and immediate visual improvement, which, for mature skin, is often exactly what you need. No irritation for me, and it layers seamlessly with the rest of my routine.

Consistency is the key
This product is amazing. You have to keep in mind that it doesn’t give instant results. However, consistent use will reveal wonders. I use my whole stick before I started to see results. When my stick was gone, is when I looked in the mirror and I was shocked. My forehead was tighter and lifted. My under eye bags had disappeared, and my eyes looked tighter. My skin was just so youthful looking. So I was like OK!! I need to order another one, I swear I didn’t think it was working at all until the sticker was gone. And I just woke up one morning and noticed a huge difference. I wonder if the changes will last?
