Plant Type: Evergreen palm (clumping)
Overview
A classy, shade-loving palm for Adelaide and South Australian gardens. Rhapis excelsa forms dense bamboo-like clumps topped with elegant fan leaves, giving instant resort style in courtyards, entries and under eaves. Tough, low-mess and long-lived, it thrives in pots or sheltered garden beds where many other plants struggle.
Key Features

- Foliage: Glossy deep-green, segmented fan leaves on cane-like stems; fresh lighter green new fronds; may bronze slightly in winter or strong light
-
Flowers: Inconspicuous creamy panicles (rare in cultivation; not grown for flowers)
- Seasonal Interest: Year-round evergreen structure with lush, fan-textured foliage and attractive cane stems for a refined tropical look
- Wildlife Value: Dense clumps can provide shelter for small birds; occasional flowers may attract insects
- Tolerance: Shade-loving; Heat-Tolerant (in shade), Drought-Tolerant once established; Light Frost Hardy; Wind-Tolerant with protection; Coastal-Tolerant in sheltered sites; avoid waterlogging (improved soils make it Clay-Tolerant)
- Planting Density: Screens/hedges 0.8–1 m apart; mass plant 1–2 per m²; specimens 1.2–1.8 m from walls/paths

Where It Works Best
- Sunlight: Part shade to full shade (protect from hot afternoon sun)
- Soil: Free-draining loam or sandy loam; improve heavy clay with organic matter and coarse grit
- Water Needs: Establishment: 2 deep soaks/week for 8–12 weeks. Established: water every 10–14 days in summer (more in heat for pots); monthly in winter if dry
- Maintenance: Remove spent/browned fronds; trim leaf tips if wind-marked; divide clumps in warm weather; slow-release feed in spring
- Lifespan: 25-50+ years
- Climate Zones: Excellent for temperate and Mediterranean SA gardens, verandahs and indoor/outdoor containers
- Soil pH: Slightly acidic to neutral; tolerates mildly alkaline if drainage is good
Landscape & Design Ideas
- Shaded courtyard or entry statement in large pots for instant “boutique hotel” vibes
- Understory planting beneath pergolas or high-canopy trees where lawn won’t grow
- Narrow side paths/screens—columnar clumps give privacy without bulk

ABSOLUTELY A MUST for Omegaverse Girls!!!
I ABSOLUTELY LOVE Jillian West and her books!!! I’m so happy I already bought book two and now I have to buy the others for the Assurance Security series!!
Not gonna lie Val kind of annoyed me at the beginning but she grew on me!! Her men are chef’s kisses!!! Holt annoys me some but I can let it slide. I already bought part two so I’m going to be reading that in between work phone calls!!!! DON’T TELL MY BOSS 😂😂😂😂

Baby bumps and bodyguards
Format: Kindle
Dark, emotional, and unexpectedly tender, Not Ready is an omegaverse romance that delivers found family feels, fierce protectiveness, and a very pregnant heroine who refuses to break. Vale’s on the run from a stalker, but lands in the arms of three private security alphas, cue the swoony tension, fake marriage twist, and slow-burn heat.
It’s a little gritty, a little soft, and a whole lot addictive. If you love protective alphas, high stakes, and heroines with quiet strength, this one’s a must-read.

Strong Omegaverse Comfort and a Attention Grabbing Plot
Format: Kindle
Jillian West never misses when it comes to Omegaverse, and Not Ready is no exception. This story was the perfect blend of cozy comfort and emotional depth while still delivering a strong plot.
Vale is such a powerful heroine, she is strong, capable, and determined but I love that she still allows her pack to love and take care of her. It’s that balance of independence and vulnerability that makes her so relatable.
The relationship dynamics were amazing: Bishop is steadfast and completely head over heels, Mercy is skeptical but protective in his own way, and Holt is the hesitant one whose slow fall is so satisfying to watch unfold.
The romance hits that sweet spot between insta-love and cautious build, keeping me hooked the entire way through. And that ending. Oh my god, the cliffhanger! I need the next book in this duet immediately.

Interesting
Format: Kindle
So I will say I enjoyed the story, for sure had its moments where it dragged but it was a great story. I really liked that omegas picked their alphas/make the pack. Normally the Alphas make it and the omega fits in with them which is great but I enjoyed this new version where all the power basically went to the omega. It was a nice change of pace. I can admit some of the weird bedroom stuff with her being pregnant was odd, it’s really not hard to do stuff when pregnant (I know I’ve had two and it’s normal and even encouraged at the end especially if you want the baby out). But I like the story as a whole and will read the second, I do hope the next one isn’t dragged bc it stopped being action or tense after she met her alphas and I don’t think it was brought up or properly done when they tried to do it. More sweet after she left.

I’m a little disappointed.
Format: Kindle
I usually like Jillian West’s books but this one was missing a lot for me. The pregnancy didn’t come across as real. She’s on her feet for 12 hour days but is perfectly healthy at 8 months pregnant? Yet the week she moves in all of a sudden she’s not? She is planning on actually running during one of the plot buildups. But at 8 months pregnant that’s incredibly hard to do. The lack of breathing ability and lung space, the change in body center, mass, and gravity. All of it prohibits running, unless you’re an athlete this didn’t come off as at all realistic.
I didn’t feel any connection with the alphas. There wasn’t any emotional connection. It could be because of the tense it was written in. But I didn’t get any deep feelings out of this. It came across as checking off boxes. Even the spicy scenes weren’t really believable for me. I wanted to see them fall for her, and it just kind of all fizzled. Even Bishop.
One thing I did really like was the ending. I did not see it coming and I’m interested in reading book two because of it. But on the whole this book was mostly disappointing for me.
