🌞 Light & Placement

Thrives in bright, indirect light but tolerates some light shade. Avoid harsh direct sun, which can scorch the leaves. Ideal near east or west-facing windows with filtered light.

💧 Water & Humidity

Water when the top 3–5 cm of soil are dry. Loves moderate to high humidity; mist occasionally, especially during winter heating, to keep fronds lush and tips green.

🪴 Soil & Potting

Plant in a well-draining indoor palm mix rich in organic matter. Repot every 2–3 years in spring to refresh soil and accommodate its expanding root system.

🐾 Toxicity & Safety

Non-toxic to pets and humans—safe for homes with cats, dogs, and children.

🌱 Growth & Propagation

Moderate grower indoors. Propagation is done via seed or division, but division is uncommon for home growers due to dense clumping roots.

📆 Seasonal & Special Care

Wipe fronds gently to remove dust and keep them photosynthesising efficiently. Fertilise monthly during spring and summer with a balanced liquid fertiliser diluted to half strength.

🐛 Common Issues

Brown leaf tips often indicate low humidity or fluoride sensitivity; use filtered water if needed. Watch for spider mites or mealybugs and treat promptly with neem oil.

🧬 Botanical Background

Dypsis lutescens, also known as Areca Palm or Butterfly Palm, is native to Madagascar and belongs to the Arecaceae family. Its elegant fronds and pet-safe nature make it a timeless favourite for European indoor jungles.
