Care & tips for the Areca Palm - 220cm

The Areca Palm is a popular houseplant and relatively easy to look after. This tropical palm likes steady humidity, so regular misting is well worth it. Keep it out of draughts, which can damage the leaves. The palm isn't hardy, so it's strictly one for indoors.

How much water does the Areca Palm- 220cm need?

The soil of the Areca Palm can always feel slightly moist. Don't let the root ball dry out, but equally don't leave the roots standing in a layer of water. Small amounts of water regularly beats a lot of water occasionally.

How much light does the Areca Palm - 220cm need?

The Areca Palm is happiest somewhere with plenty of bright indirect daylight. Direct sun can make the leaves discolour or scorch. A spot by an east or west facing window is ideal. In winter the palm copes with a little less light, but avoid deep shade even then.

Is the Areca Palm - 220cm toxic?

No, the Areca Palm isn't toxic, which makes it a safe choice for households with children and pets.

Because this plant is taller than 180cm, the Areca Palm including pot Russel L - 220cm is delivered by special pallet transport. That way we can guarantee your plant reaches your home in perfect condition and is handled with care.

Frequently asked questions about the Areca palm

How often should I water my Areca palm?

The Dypsis Lutescens likes lightly moist soil. First feel the top 2-3 cm of potting mix: if it's dry, you can water, usually around once or twice a week during the growing season and less in winter.

Areca palms are sensitive to chlorine and fluoride, so it's best to let tap water sit for a day before using it. Always make sure excess water can drain away well to prevent root rot.

Can the Areca palm sit in direct sunlight?

Not all day, no. The Dypsis Lutescens loves plenty of light, but strong midday sun can scorch the fronds. Choose a bright spot out of direct sun, for example a few steps back from the window.

If the palm is too dark, it will grow more slowly and the fronds will be less full. A bright room with filtered daylight is ideal.

Why does my Areca palm have brown leaf tips?

Brown leaf tips on the Dypsis Lutescens are usually a sign of dry air, or of chlorine and fluoride in tap water. A build-up of salts in the soil can also be the cause.

Mist the fronds regularly, use water that has been left to stand, and flush the soil thoroughly every now and then. Only remove fronds that have turned fully brown; don't trim a partly brown frond, as that causes the whole frond to die off.

Is the Areca palm toxic to pets?

No, the Dypsis Lutescens is non-toxic to dogs, cats and other pets. That makes it a lovely, safe choice if you share your home with a four-legged friend.

Keep in mind that a cat may still enjoy nibbling on the fronds, so place the plant slightly out of reach if needed to prevent damaged leaf tips.

How much humidity does the Areca palm need?

The Dypsis Lutescens originally comes from a humid tropical climate, so it likes higher humidity than average. Especially in winter, when the heating dries out the air, you'll notice it on the leaf tips.

Mist the fronds regularly with a spray bottle, place the plant near other plants, or use a humidifier. That way the palm stays fresh and full.

How can I propagate my Areca palm?

The Dypsis Lutescens naturally grows as a clump with multiple stems, which makes propagation easier than with single-trunked palms. When repotting, you can gently separate a side shoot with its own roots from the root ball.

Plant the new shoot in fresh, well-draining potting mix and keep the soil a little moister for the first few weeks, so the young palm can root well.

How fast does the Areca palm grow, and how big does it get?

The Dypsis Lutescens is one of the faster-growing indoor palms and, with the right care, can reach around 2 metres tall indoors. The plant forms a clump of several slender stems with graceful, feathery fronds.

If your palm is growing more slowly, that's often down to too little light or feeding during the growing season. With a bit more light and a monthly dose of fertiliser, growth usually picks up again on its own.
