The parlor palm's growing habits
The parlor palm likes a warm, humid, semi-shaded growing environment. The suitable growing temperature is 20-30°C. When the temperature drops below 13°C, the parlor palm enters its dormant period. In winter, the minimum temperature should be kept above 3°C for overwintering. The parlor
palm's growing medium is best as a moist, fertile loam with good drainage. When potting, a medium made of leaf mold plus peat soil and a small amount of sand should be used.
The parlor palm has low fertilizer requirements. Generally, apply liquid fertilizer 1-2 times per month during the growing season, and apply little or no fertilizer in late autumn and winter. Repot once every 2-3 years in spring.
Watering should follow the principle of preferring moist over dry, and the potting soil should simply be kept consistently moist. When the air is dry in summer and autumn, spray the plant frequently to raise the ambient air humidity. This benefits its growth and also keeps the leaf surface dark green and glossy.
In winter, reduce the amount of watering appropriately to help it overwinter. The parlor palm likes semi-shaded conditions and avoids direct sunlight in hot seasons. Under strong sun, its leaf color will fade or turn yellow, and scorched leaves and black spots will appear, causing it to lose its ornamental value.
