Plant care tips
Light
Kentia palms prefer indirect sunlight and avoid exposing to full sun as this will likely scorch the leaves. These plants can tolerate low light conditions.
Humidity
These are tropical plants so prefer warmer temperatures and high humidity. However the hardiness of the Kentia palm means it can tolerate lower temperatures too.
Watering
Water weekly in the summer allowing the soil to dry out between waterings. Yellowing leaves indicate overwatering or root rot. Brown tips indicate drying out.
