Palms evoke feelings of luxury, opulence and prosperity. They are found in lush gardens at hotels and resorts in Las Vegas and Orange County, lining the streets of Hollywood, and in many private homes. The pharaohs of Ancient Egypt cultivated these tropical beauties in their house gardens and the tradition continues today.Areca palms are excellent for improving indoor air quality and are credited with their ability to absorb toxic gases such as acetone, xylene and toluene, leaving fresh, healthy air for our bodies to breathe. This plant also releases negative ions which attach themselves to dust, mould spores, bacteria and other allergens in the air making them unable to survive, thus helping to clean up our indoor environment.In general, these plants prefer bright indirect sunlight and good air circulation. https://gicaingenierias.com/ Keep them away from cold drafts, especially in the winter. This species does not tolerate low humidity and will quickly show signs of distress if subjected to dry conditions, such as yellowing fronds or brown spotting on the leaves. If you notice these symptoms, you can increase the amount of water given to this species in order to maintain proper humidity levels.A well-lit position in the home is ideal for this species, although it can be grown in a slightly shaded position out of direct sunlight, as it will tolerate some light shade in summer. If kept in a brighter position, the light intensity may need to be reduced in winter in order to prevent scorching of the leaves.The soil should be kept moist throughout the year, however it is important that the compost dries out in between. A misting system is an effective way to raise the ambient humidity of the surrounding area, although this may cause a slight problem for other plants in the home or office. A better option is to group your plants together so that their transpiration raises the humidity for them all. This technique will work best for larger groups of plants.Regular feeding with a general purpose liquid fertiliser is recommended for this plant. This can be done every month from April to mid-September, or fortnightly in the summer. Avoid adding any fertilizer when the plant is in a dormant stage, such as in the winter months.
