★★★★★Beautiful healthy plant + quick and safe delivery
Very happy with the Kentia palm that I ordered. A beautiful, large palm that fits perfectly in my living room. Ordering it was super easy, communication was clear and the delivery was fast. I was a bit worried about how...

★★★★Het mag wel wat plant vriendelijker worden bezorgd
Het mag wel wat plant vriendelijker worden bezorgd. De plant kwam een beetje beschadigd aan. Door dat de bladeren op een onjuiste manier in de doos waren gestopt. Verder is het een mooie plant.
Ik ben blij verrast! Een mooie uitziende plant en goed verpakt ontvangen. Bij de mededeling vroeg ik of zij wilde kijken naar een rechtopstaande plant en als het kan iets groter dan aangegeven maat. Daar heeft de kweker ook goed...

All about
The Areca palm dossier
Dypsis lutescens
The Areca palm comes from Madagascar, where it grows in groups along rivers. It owes its name gold palm to the golden yellow glow on the leaf stems.
With its full, feather-like leaves, the Areca has been one of the most popular palms for the home for generations, and is also a natural air freshener.

Placement and light
The Areca likes a lot of indirect light: close to the window but without bright afternoon sun is perfect. Too dark produces thin, weak growth.
Keep the temperature above 15 degrees, avoid cold drafts and give it space: its leaves fan out widely.
Water and feeding
Keep the root ball slightly moist during the growing season; water about twice a week in summer. In winter, the soil is allowed to dry slightly in between. The Areca is more sensitive to drying out than most palms.
Spray the leaves regularly, especially in winter, and feed every two weeks from April to September.
Is something wrong with your Areca palm?
Brown leaf tips are the classic Areca signal of dry air or too little water. Yellow leaves indicate too much water or too bright sunlight. It is normal for a bottom leaf to wither occasionally. Spider mites can strike in dry air; spraying keeps it away.
Repot the Areca every two to three years in the spring, in a pot that is one size larger. Keep the root ball as intact as possible and ensure good drainage. You can find the matching decorative pots directly on this page.
Toxic to pets?
The Areca palm is not poisonous to cats and dogs. Even a cat that nibbles on the leaves is not at risk. Together with the Kentia, this is the animal-friendly palm for your home.
The Areca grows steadily: new stems are added every season, making the plant increasingly full. Our XXL specimens are already a full, mature oasis in themselves.
