Looking
like a large bushy parlour palm the Areca palm is a great
choice if you need a dense tall specimen. Needing a little
more care than the parlour or kentia palm but the result
is a magnificent plant. Great if you have a bright spot
that does not get too dry, avoid radiators.
Site:
Bright indirect light to bright shade.
Temp:
Average warmth. Best if it does not get too cold over the
winter.
Water:
Water really well in the growing season little over winter.
Misting occasionally will help the leaves to look their
best.
Feeding:
A palm food appled every month or so over the growing season.
Tip:
If any stems begin to die remove ASAP to stop any rot infecting
the healthy stems adjacent.
