Resilient Beauty & Beginner-Friendly Care:

The Kentia Palm is renowned for its resilience and adaptability, making it a surprisingly easy-care indoor plantperfect for both seasoned enthusiasts and beginners.

• Light: Thrives best in bright, indirect light to medium light. It is notably tolerant of lower light conditionscompared to many other palms, making it ideal for spots with limited natural light. Avoid harsh, direct sunlight which can scorch the leaves.
• Water: Water regularly, allowing the top inch or two of soil to dry out slightly between waterings. Keep the soil consistently moist but never waterlogged to prevent root rot. While "once per week" is a common guide, always check the soil moisture.
• Humidity: Appreciates average to high humidity, reflecting its subtropical origins.
• Temperature: Happy in average room temperatures (ideally 18-25°C).
• Fertilising: Feed every 2-3 months during the growing season (typically spring and summer) with a balanced liquid houseplant fertiliser. Follow the dosage instructions carefully to avoid over-fertilising.
• Repotting: This palm is relatively slow-growing and does not require frequent repotting, typically only every few years.
