Chamaedorea cataractarum, commonly known as the Cat Palm or Cascade Palm, is a clumping palm highly valued for its dense foliage and graceful habit. Its fountain-like growth is particularly attractive for creating a tropical atmosphere in homes or offices. Being non-toxic to pets and humans and helping to purify the air, it is an ideal and safe choice for any living space.

Characteristics

  • Foliage: The evergreen fronds are long, reaching up to 90 cm (3 ft), and elegantly arched. They are a deep green and composed of multiple narrow, lance-shaped leaflets, giving the plant a very full and soft-to-the-touch appearance, unlike other palms with rigid leaves.
  • Flowering: Although grown for its foliage, it can produce small, inconspicuous cream-coloured flowers. However, flowering is very rare in indoor conditions.
  • Light: It prefers bright but indirect light. It is also quite tolerant of lower light levels, making it an excellent choice for less sunny rooms. Absolutely avoid direct sun, which will burn its leaves.
  • Habit: It grows in a dense clump, with multiple slender stems emerging directly from the base. This arrangement gives it a bushy habit and a very characteristic arched form, resembling a fountain of greenery.
  • Growth: Slow. Indoors, it typically reaches a height of 1.2 to 1.8 metres (4-6 feet).
  • Humidity: This palm loves ambient humidity. Misting it regularly, using a humidifier, or placing its pot on a tray of pebbles and water is very beneficial. Brown leaf tips are often a sign of dry air.
  • Soil: Use a well-draining houseplant potting mix, ideally a formula for palms. Adding organic matter like peat moss helps retain necessary moisture while ensuring good drainage.
  • Temperature: Maintain room temperatures between 18°C and 27°C (65°F-80°F). It must be protected from cold drafts, heating vents, and sudden temperature changes.
  • Watering: The soil should be kept consistently moist, but never soggy. Water thoroughly when the top inch of soil (2-3 cm) feels dry to the touch. It does not like to dry out completely.
  • Pests: Fairly resistant, however, it can be susceptible to spider mites if the air is too dry, as well as mealybugs and scale insects.

Uses

  • Types of Use: It is an excellent houseplant grown in a container. Its moderate size and dense habit make it perfect for filling a corner, living room, or office.
  • Ornamental Features: Its soft habit and arched fronds soften the corners of a room and instantly create a natural and tropical atmosphere.
  • Summer Outdoors: This palm greatly benefits from a stay outdoors during the summer (mid-June to late August). It must be gradually acclimatized and placed in a shady or partly shaded spot, sheltered from direct sun and strong winds.

Care

  • Fertilizing: Fertilize once a month from spring to fall with a balanced, water-soluble liquid fertilizer. Reduce or stop fertilizing in winter.
  • Pruning: Pruning is minimal. Simply trim any yellowing or damaged fronds at their base to maintain a neat appearance.
  • Repotting: Repotting is only necessary every 2-3 years, when the plant becomes root-bound. Choose a pot that is one size larger and carry out the operation in the spring to minimize stress.

ChuckIt is AMAZING!
Style: Sport, Size: Large
I can't throw a ball to save my soul. Just got this today and lobbed a ball to the far end of my 1- acre yard. The dog loves it, and I love it!

I recommend using the KONG Extreme Dog Toy
Style: Sport, Size: Large
Helpful for throwing as much as my dog wants to fetch. I actually had to get a cortisone injection in my shoulder a few months after getting my dog - never had a dog with this much energy before! The Chuckit really helps. Downside: The ball that comes with it is larger than a tennis ball, so may be too much for smaller doge. I can't imagine my sister-in-law's french bulldog carrying it! Also, in our house it gets destroyed within minutes, as my dog is a strong chewer. For this situation, I recommend using the KONG Extreme Dog Toy, Black, size Large. This is shaped sort of like a snowman, which means it bounces unpredictably at times. My dog eventually chews the "head" off of this toy, but the remaining 2/3 still fits in the Chuckit (and is actually easier to throw with the "head" missing!). One caveat: the KONG is significantly heavier than the ball included with the Chuckit, so be aware of that... Also, we ordered our first Chickit in October 2015, then needed to replace it in May of 2017, as it broke. I think the plastic became brittle over that time, as we left it out in the sun & rain in Florida. Since it is cheap to replace, that's not a big deal. (We ordered three Kong toys over that same period of time!) To summarize, it's a very helpful tool to get the ball further, faster, with less strain, than without it. Knowing there are alternatives to the included ball for heavy chewers makes it worthwhile.

Great Ball Launcher!
Style: Sport, Size: Large
Our dogs love this ball launcher! I can throw the ball long distances without any arm strain. The balls wear out, and as described by others, tennis balls don’t fit. Buy extra balls if this is of concern. We bought a few of the “Chuck It” rubber 3” balls and they have worked well for our dogs. It’s a great value and fun for the dogs.

Chuckit!! Just Chuck it!!
Style: Sport, Size: Large
Chuck it further than your skinny little arms can chuck it. Doggo loved this, I loved this and when we were done Doggo promptly hid it under the porch so I couldn’t take it from him. It’s not a squeaky toy, it’s for fetch. You wing it out toward the yard and it flies, bounces if it’s lucky then is attacked in an adoring manner. We like it!!
