Areca Palm

The areca palm is a tropical plant popular for its elegant, air-purifying foliage. Native to Madagascar, it is widely grown indoors as a houseplant and outdoors in warm climates.

• Plant Hight: 1-2 feet
• Light: Prefers bright, indirect sunlight.
• Watering: Water thoroughly when the top inch of soil feels dry, but do not let the plant sit in standing water, which can cause root rot.
• Humidity: As a tropical plant, it thrives in high humidity.
• Soil: Use a well-draining, peat-based potting mix that retains some moisture. A slightly acidic soil with a pH of 6.0–6.5 is ideal.
• Fertilizer: During the growing season (spring and summer), feed the plant with a balanced liquid fertilizer every 2–4 weeks. Stop fertilizing during the fall and winter.
