Areca Palm

Dypsis lutescens

 

 Size

The size can range from 6 to 8 feet tall.

 

 Soil

Plant in a moist and well-draining peat-based potting mix.

 

 Water

Water about every ten days and allow the soil to completely dry between waterings.

 

 Sunlight

Areca Palms do best with bright light exposure from a south or west-facing window.

 

 Temperature and Humidity

High humidity (50-70%) is essential to keeping an areca palm looking its best. Average household temperatures of 65-75°F are best.
