Areca Palm

The elegant Areca Palm has attractive yellow stems that resemble bamboo as the plant matures. These clumps of graceful foliage can grow quite large, with mature fronds 2-3' (.6-.9 m) long. Where hardy, use as specimen. In cold regions, grow in a container and overwinter indoors. Prefers moist, well-drained soil.
