Chrysalidocarpus lutescens (Areca Palm) 130cm

Size: 130cm

Chrysalidocarpus lutescens, commonly known as the Areca Palm or Butterfly Palm, is a popular indoor plant known for its feathery, arching fronds and graceful appearance. The Areca Palm features multiple stems that grow from the base, each adorned with a cluster of slender, green leaves that add a touch of tropical elegance to any indoor space. This plant can grow to a substantial height indoors, making it an excellent choice for adding greenery and height to your home or office.

Plant Care:

• Lighting: The Areca Palm thrives in bright, indirect light. It can tolerate lower light levels but may grow more slowly and develop fewer fronds. Avoid direct sunlight, which can scorch the leaves.
• Watering: Keep the soil consistently moist but not soggy. Water when the top inch of soil feels dry. Ensure the pot has good drainage to prevent waterlogging. During the growing season (spring and summer), you may need to water more frequently.
• Soil: Use a well-draining potting mix, such as a peat-based mix with added perlite or sand to improve drainage.
• Fertilizing: Feed with a balanced, water-soluble fertilizer every 4-6 weeks during the growing season. Reduce feeding in the winter months when the plant's growth slows.
• Pruning: Pruning is generally not necessary for the Areca Palm. However, you can remove any dead, yellowing, or damaged fronds by cutting them at the base with clean, sharp scissors. This helps maintain the plant’s appearance and overall health.
