The only climbing Chamaedorea, and perhaps the only climbing palm without spines, and thus very easy to recognize, this species scrambles up trees aided by its long leaves with stiff, reflexed leaflets near the tip that can hook onto other vegetation for support. Its slender, occasionally branching, cane-like stems can reach a length of up to 20 m (65 ft.). It is native to rainforests in southern Mexico and Guatemala between 100 and 1500 m (300 and 4900 ft.) elevation. In cultivation it has proven to be very adaptable, succeeding in the warm temperate as well as in the tropical garden, ideally planted under the canopy of established trees.
