The Dypsis Lutescens, commonly known as the Areca palm, produces long, slender leaves that arch gently outward. The bright green, feathery foliage gives the plant a full, tropical character. It is available in four sizes, with heights ranging from 140 to 230 cm and pot diameters from Ø21 to Ø40.
The Areca palm suits spaces where a lush, living green element is part of the interior concept: office lobbies, hotel interiors, retail environments and care facilities. The plant performs best in a bright position with indirect light, such as near a window or beneath a rooflight. Direct sunlight should be avoided, as it can scorch the leaves.
Watering requirements are moderate: water when the top layer of compost feels dry, roughly once a week. Good drainage is essential to prevent root rot. Choose the size based on ceiling height and the visual weight you need in the space; the four variants offer a practical range for most project situations. Plants are secured in a purpose-built box with a protective sleeve and arrive in good condition.
Can this palm be placed both indoors and outdoors? Yes, it can be used in both settings. In either case, choose a position with indirect light and protect the plant from direct sunlight, which can cause leaf scorch.
How much maintenance does this plant require in a commercial setting? Maintenance is straightforward: water when the top layer of compost feels dry, roughly once a week. Ensure the pot drains well to prevent root rot. No specialist treatment is required beyond that.
How do I choose the right size for my project? The plant is available in four heights ranging from 140 to 230 cm. Taller variants suit spaces with high ceilings; the smaller sizes work well as accents in lower or more compact interiors.
Can I order multiple units for a single project? Yes, orders can be placed per unit or in larger quantities. For project fit-outs, you can combine the same size throughout or mix heights to create visual variation across a space.
How is the plant packaged and what is the lead time? The lead time is five working days. Each plant is secured inside a purpose-built box designed for indoor plants, with a protective sleeve covering the plant and compost. The order is dispatched as a single shipment.
