The thin stalks and leaves of the Kentia palm (Howea forsteriana) create a tropical ambiance in your living room! The plant even improves air quality! This plant tolerates dry air well. Water the Kentia palm twice a week in summer, once a week in winter, to keep the root ball moist. Place the plant out in the rain for a while twice a year, too. That allows any dust to be rinsed off the leaves. The Howea does like light, but not strong, midday sunshine. This palm loves morning and evening sun. Touching it too much will damage the leaves, so put the plant in a quiet corner where it will have enough room. The plant comes with an Elho b.for soft decorative pot. Welcome to the tropics!
