One of the slowest growers, this palm was a Victorian favourite, hence the parlour moniker.

Thrives in medium to bright light, but direct sun is too harsh for the Parlour Palm.

Frequent watering - at least weekly when the top two inches of soil is dry - and possibly more regularly in spring and summer.

Moist air keeps the plant fronds green and fresh. Mist about once a week.

A monthly dose of fertiliser in spring and summer is a great way to keep the plant happy.

Wilting plant: under-watered, dry air.
Yellowing leaves, soggy base: overwatered
