Watering is key: keep the soil moist, allowing it to dry slightly between sessions to prevent root rot.Fertilize regularly with time-release fertilizer and micronutrient spray, especially during the growing season.
Use well-draining soil and repot every 2-3 years. Propagate through seed germination or root division for more palms.Ensure pots have drainage holes to prevent waterlogging and maintain the plant's health.
With a slow to moderate growth rate, Areca Palms can reach up to 7 feet indoors and 30 feet outdoors.Watch out for pests like spider mites and diseases like lethal yellowing, treating promptly to maintain plant health.
