  Palms thrive in bright, indirect light. They can tolerate partial shade, making them suitable for corners or rooms with filtered daylight. Avoid direct sun, which can scorch the leaves.

  • Chamaedorea elegans (Parlour Palm): More tolerant of low light.
  • Dypsis lutescens (Areca Palm): Prefers brighter positions.
  • Howea forsteriana (Kentia Palm): Very adaptable, does well in medium light.
  • Rhapis excelsa (Lady Palm): Handles lower light better than most palms.

  Keep the soil lightly moist, watering when the top 2–3 cm feels dry.

  • Rainwater is preferred, as it’s soft and free of chemicals, helping palms look their best. Tap water is usually fine, but if your water is very hard, flush the soil every few months to remove salts.
  • Always use room-temperature water, never cold straight from the tap.
  • For misting, use distilled or filtered water to avoid mineral marks on the leaves.

  Palms prefer average to higher humidity. They’ll adapt to normal room conditions but thrive with a little extra.

  • Pebble trays or humidifiers help in dry seasons.
  • Misting can freshen leaves, but keep it light to avoid spotting.

  Use a well-draining, peat-free potting mix. Repot only every 3–4 years, as palms prefer being slightly root-bound and can be sensitive to disturbance.
