Care for the Betel Palm

Location

The Areca catechu thrives best in a place with lots of indirect light and can also tolerate a few hours of direct sunlight per day. When placed indoors, it is recommended to place the palm near a large window facing east or west. The leaves of the Betel Palm can easily get damaged when exposed to wind, so do not place the plant in a draughty spot.

Watering

In its natural environment, the Areca catechu enjoys a fairly humid climate. The palm therefore needs regular watering. Ensure well-draining soil so that the water can reach the roots and also provide good drainage so that excess water can run off. If there is a layer of water remaining at the bottom of the pot, it can cause root rot. Water the Areca again when the soil feels slightly moist to dry. In the summer, the Betel Palm will need to be watered more often than in the winter.

Spraying

The Betel Palm enjoys being sprayed regularly. This increases the humidity and removes dust from the leaves, allowing them to absorb light better.

Temperature

The ideal temperature for the Areca catechu is around 20 to 25 °C. The plant cannot tolerate temperatures below 12 °C and is therefore not frost-hardy.

Pruning

Old leaves will eventually wither. This leaf can be cut off at the stem; in this way, the plant forms its stem. Discoloured leaf tips can be cut off to keep the plant looking beautiful.

Feeding

During the growing months in the spring and summer, the Areca catechu needs extra feeding. Use a feed suitable for palms. Check the packaging for the correct amounts.
