This beautiful plant is remarkable for its thick trunk-like roots that grow above ground, giving it the appearance of a small tree. The thick bulb transforms into a delicate sprouting of emerald green leaves which you can prune to take the shape that appeals to you. This plant is an excellent option for adding some simple elegance to a desk or smaller space. Just make sure it gets plenty of light, consistent water, and plenty of humidity!
