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.

Great Cord and Great Price
Size: 30-Foot, Style: Standard End
I got an email from Camping World telling me about a sale on these extension cords. I looked at their site and they wanted about $140. I really needed the cord and almost ordered from them, but I checked Amazon first. Surprise: It was lots cheaper here. Yay. Deal done. This is a great cord. My stock 50A power cord that came with my fifth wheel is too short to reach to my house and plug in and charge my coach batteries. I've used other extension cords, but they sometimes get hot--especially if I don't completely uncoil them. So now I use this Camco extension to reach the outlet in my garage. Even though the garage outlet is only a 20A breaker, it's still a more efficient charge and safer connection to use the stock cord, plus this extension, plus the dog-bone adapter to reduce down to the 110 outlet. The connections are clean and I get the best charge I can possibly get from that outlet. As long as I don't run the air conditioner or any other heavy appliances, I won't trip the breaker in the house panel. This cord is constructed well. The ends are good and easy to plug/unplug. The Velcro carrying handle is a big help too. Well done.

Honestly. Hope for the best, will update...
Size: 15-Foot, Style: Standard End
Durable solid high quality built. Got a 15 ft and the length is perfect. It's so heavy, can't imaging if I have got a 25ft or 50ft one. I bought it because of its using 6 gauge wires, and 8 gauge for the ground. I am using it on a 40a circuit breaker and running on a 8 gauge wire from the breaker to the NEMA outlet, so limited it to charging the EV with 32a max. Not expecting it to be heating up the wires or burning the heads, will update this posting if it does. May 20, 2025 update: solid build cord, very durable. It does a perfect job what I have expected. The head feels just slightly warm with my setup. Glad that I bought this.

Simple install
Style: 5th Wheel Stabilizer Tripod Jack, Pattern Name: Stabilizer
Simple intsall, easily adjustable to diffrent hights, feet have a nice base so they don't sink, but can be placed on pads, helps with stability. Quality seems to be good. Nice weight not cheap and flimsy, durable enough to do the job, but not so heavy you need two people to move it.
