📋 Care Instructions
| Care Aspect | Guidelines |
|---|---|
| 💡 Light | Bright, indirect light is ideal. Place near a window with filtered sunlight. Can tolerate medium light but grows more slowly. Avoid direct harsh sun which may scorch fronds. |
| 💧 Watering | Keep soil consistently moist but not waterlogged during growing season. Allow soil to dry slightly between waterings in winter. Use room-temperature water and avoid chlorinated water if possible. |
| 🌡️ Temperature | Prefers temperatures between 18-24°C (65-75°F). Keep away from cold drafts and heat sources. Thrives in warm, humid environments with consistent temperatures. |
| 💨 Humidity | Enjoys high humidity. Mist fronds regularly or place on a pebble tray with water. Regular misting keeps foliage vibrant and prevents spider mites, which palms are susceptible to. |
| 🌱 Soil | Use well-draining, nutrient-rich potting mix specifically designed for palms if possible. A blend of peat moss, perlite, and compost works well. Ensure pot has excellent drainage holes. |
| 🍽️ Fertilizing | Feed monthly during growing season (spring/summer) with balanced or palm-specific fertilizer. Reduce feeding in fall and winter when growth naturally slows. Use diluted liquid fertilizer. |
| ✂️ Pruning | Remove yellow or brown fronds promptly to maintain appearance. Trim dead frond tips with clean scissors. Never cut green fronds as this damages the plant. |
| 🔄 Repotting | Repot every 2-3 years or when roots emerge from drainage holes. Spring is ideal. Use a pot only slightly larger than the previous one to avoid overwatering issues. |
