Indoor & Outdoor Care for Your Areca Palm
The Affordable Organic Store brings a brief guide regarding how to make your lush Areca Calm thrive beautifully indoors as well as outdoors.
Light
You should avoid putting your Areca Palm in direct sunlight because its leaves may get scorched if you do so. We would recommend putting it in bright indirect sunlight so that it can thrive better.
Watering
Your Areca Palm doesn’t demand over-watering or waterlogged soil. Therefore, make sure that your Areca Palm’s soil is moist and water it when the top inch of the soil is dry. We would recommend using clean or filtered water for watering it to avoid any kind of plant diseases or browning of the tips of the leaves.
Humidity
Your Areca Palm loves high humidity so make sure to use a humidifier and be regular with misting if your indoor space is extremely dry.
Temperature
Your low-maintenance and lush Areca Palm plant will thrive healthily in a preferable temperature range of 65°F to 75°F. Also, we would recommend keeping your pretty plant away from a sudden temperature change.
Soil and Potting
You should always make sure that you are using a proper and top-quality potting mix for your Areca Palm. Moreover, while planting outdoors, make sure to leave a gap of four to five feet between two Areca Plants.
Fertilization
You can add vermicompost to make the soil more fertile so that your Areca Palm plants can thrive better. You can also add Seaweed to your dear Areca Palm plant, once a month, for healthier and greener leaves.
To fight off any kind of unwanted pests, the Neem Oil from the Affordable Organic Store is a suitable choice to treat infestations on your Areca Palm immediately. Avoid over-fertilizing because it may damage your plant and learn about the right amount of fertilization required according to the conditions of your plant.
Pruning & Trimming

You should keep pruning and trimming it regularly to get rid of any dead fronds that may ruin the tranquil appearance of this plant. Also, you can use a piece of cloth or any other suitable means to remove the dust settling on the plants over time.
