DESCRIPTION

Areca Palm

Lush, airy, and instantly uplifting, the Areca Palm is one of the most popular indoor palms for creating a bright tropical feel at home. Loved for its many slender stems and soft arching fronds, it brings fullness and movement into the space without looking too heavy, making it a beautiful choice for living rooms, entryways, offices, and sheltered balconies.

Available in three sizes, the Areca Palm is ideal for those who want a versatile palm that can suit both medium and larger spaces while keeping a light, elegant look.

Product Specifics

• Plant: Areca Palm
• Available sizes:
  • 1.2m – XL
  • 1.5m – XL
  • 1.7m – XXL
• Grow pot size: 25cm
• As this is a live plant, stem count, fullness, height, and frond spread may vary naturally from plant to plant

Repotting Recommendation

This plant comes in a standard nursery pot with nursery soil, which is suitable for growing and transport, but not ideal as a long-term decorative setup.

We highly recommend repotting for:

• a more polished decorative finish
• improved root space for a larger plant
• better long-term soil conditions
• a stronger, more complete styling look in the home

For taller palms like these, repotting helps the plant feel more finished as a feature piece while giving it a better setup to settle comfortably into its new environment.

Please select your preferred pot size carefully.
👉 Repotting services are non-reversible (cannot be returned or exchanged once completed). If unsure, check with us before confirming.

Plant Tips / Care

• Prefers bright indirect light
• Can tolerate some gentler light conditions, though growth may be slower
• Water when the top layer of soil feels slightly dry
• Avoid keeping the soil constantly soggy
• Appreciates a bright, airy environment
• Trim older yellowing fronds naturally as part of upkeep

Good to Know

Some older lower fronds may yellow naturally over time as the plant matures. Minor marks on fronds can also happen from handling and transport and are usually cosmetic only.
