Dark and shiny, sharply pointed and rich green, the leaves stick out evenly and tightly stacked from the sand colored canes. Their foliage is bound so tightly together, the tufted heads look like feather dusters. They will lose lower leaves as new ones appear, giving the more mature plant an artistic personality as those woody canes emerge. Its narrow, lanky shape is perfect for those tight corners

Craigii Compacta is the tough guy in the plant world. Dark and shiny, sharply pointed and rich green, the leaves stick out evenly and tightly stacked from the sand colored canes. Their foliage is bound so tightly together, the tufted heads look like feather dusters. They will lose lower leaves as new ones appear, giving the more mature plant an artistic personality as those woody canes emerge. Its narrow, lanky shape is perfect for those tight corners where other plants just won't fit. You almost never water it much; it takes awhile to dry out. Light from the front in the evenings when you are relaxing make magical shadows on the wall. Smaller, contrasting color plants planted around the bottom of the pot make nice arrangements, too, and more to gaze upon while you're relaxing.
