Howea Care Sheet
-
Light: Prefers bright, indirect light but will tolerate lower light conditions. Avoid direct sun, which can scorch the leaves.
-
Water: Water when the top of the soil is dry to the touch. Do not allow the soil to become waterlogged – ensure excess water drains freely.
-
Soil/Nutrition: Use a well-draining houseplant or palm compost. Feed monthly during spring and summer with a palm-specific or balanced fertiliser.
-
Humidity: Tolerates normal indoor humidity but benefits from occasional misting or a nearby humidifier.
-
Pruning & Propagation: Remove old or browning fronds at the base. Not typically propagated at home, as it grows from seed and matures slowly.
-
Experience level: Beginner-friendly
