The finger plant needs protection in Dutch winters, but then you also have a beautiful evergreen plant that flowers modestly. After flowering, it sometimes produces berries. The leaves of the plant can grow up to 40 centimetres and are reminiscent of fingers. The finger plant should not be placed in the wind, but preferably in a quiet spot. With good care, it is a plant you can enjoy for years.
