Read my Areca Palm care guide for more information. Areca palms are good citizens, too: they’re considered one of the best indoor air-purifying plants, and the ASPCA lists them as non-toxic to cats and dogs. It’s important to avoid drafts and keep their temperatures in a comfortable household range of from 65☏ (16☌) to 75☏ (24☌). If you do find spider mites-everything seems to get them!-a simple wash with horticultural soap will remove them. With well-draining soil and judicious watering, this plant wards off most pests and diseases. They prefer high humidity but can usually tolerate less leaf browning is a hint they need extra moisture. Areca palms are perfect east facing window plants, providing them the right stuff to grow into magnificent specimens that reach to the ceiling.
Commonly called Butterfly Palms for their long, feathery fronds, they need bright indirect light to stay healthy and full.
One of the most popular palms grown indoors, the stately Areca palm has an unfortunately difficult reputation.
