LIGHT
Requires bright indirect light. Keep out of direct sunlight as this can scorch the leaves.
WATER
Soil should be kept evenly moist but not wet. Allow top couple of inches of the soil to dry out between watering. Areca palms do not like to be soggy or completely dry. If you see browning on leaves, you may need to reduce the number of days in-between watering.
TIPS
- Prefers medium to high humidity but average room humidity should suffice. In the winter, you may want to run a humidifier.
- Fertilize with a weakened fertilizer a couple times when actively growing (typically Spring through early Fall).
- Prefers temperatures between 65º-85º.
