I saw a Chinese Fan Palm at Walmart yesterday. It was about 5' tall. Does anyone know if they are easy to grow, and will it get alot bigger? Thanks.

Easy to grow? Yes if you can keep it warm and give it lots of light. Lots and lots of light. Will it get bigger? I have seen them at about 20-30 ft tall, but they were old ones in Daytona Bch, FL. These grow slow and tolerate some cold (obviously not IA cold). If you have the room, the do make a spectacular houseplant. Like many (all?) of the fan palms, when brought indoors they tend to get spider mites.
