Plant Care

Light Requirements: Prefers medium to bright, indirect light and can tolerate lower-light conditions. Protect from strong direct afternoon sun.

Water Requirements: Keep the soil slightly and consistently moist, but never waterlogged. Water when the top layer begins to dry and allow excess water to drain completely.

Fertilizer: Feed with a balanced palm or houseplant fertilizer every 4–6 weeks during spring and summer. Reduce feeding during fall and winter.

Soil: Use a rich, well-draining houseplant potting mix. Good drainage is important for healthy roots.

Temperature: Prefers temperatures around 65–80°F. Protect from cold drafts and temperatures below about 50°F.

Pet Safety: Non-Toxic to cats and dogs.

Humidity: Appreciates moderate humidity, although it can adapt to average household conditions.

Growth Habit: A graceful, clumping palm with multiple slender, bamboo-like stems and soft, feathery green fronds.
