Productinformation
This beautiful Kentia palm, also known as the Howea Forsteriana, is sure to bring a touch of exoticism to your office or living room. The palm is originally from Australia, but it is very popular in our regions as a house plant. This species of Forsteriana is also the only Kentia that is cultivated in our regions. It belongs to the palm family and is one of the oldest houseplants! It is a also a relatively slow growing and tough palm, which makes it quite easy to care for.
Care
The Kentia is ideal for people without green fingers as the plant needs little water. From February to September weekly watering is sufficient. The rest of the year, it needs to be watered once a month. Furthermore, the ideal room temperature for the Kentia is between 15C° and 25C°. The plant needs a lot of light but does not like direct sunlight as it burns its leaves. It prefers a shady or semi shady spot. It is therefore best to place it near a north-facing window. If the leaves turn lighter or yellow it could mean that it is getting too much sunlight. Then, move the Kentia to a more shady spot.
Plant height
Upon delivery, the plant has a height of 90 to 100cm (measured pot included). The plant is delivered in a pot with a diameter of 18cm.
