Not Your Ordinary Garden Store Palm
The kentia palm is a beautiful and elegant plant that can add a touch of tropics to any indoor space. It is native to Australia, where it grows up to 40 feet tall. But as a houseplant, it usually reaches 6 to 8 feet tall with long, graceful fronds that can span up to 10 feet.
Kentias are a popular choice for low-light environments and is easy to care for, needing only moderate watering and occasional fertilizing. It can tolerate low humidity and cool temperatures better than most palms and is not prone to pests or diseases. The kentia palm is still a symbol of elegance and prestige today. It is often seen in upscale homes and businesses, where it creates a luxurious atmosphere.
