Product Description
Originally the plant comes from South-East Asia, but these days you'll find this palm in almost every tropical region. In the wild, this palm can grow to a height of around 12 metres! Thanks to its slow growth, that won't happen in your living room.
Care & tips for the Caryota Mitis - 120cm
The fishtail palm likes plenty of water. Make sure the soil is always moist, but watch out for excess water. Misting the leaves will do the plant good, especially in winter when the air is a little drier.
How much water does the Caryota Mitis - 120cm need?
The Caryota likes constantly moist soil. Feel the soil carefully each time. Still damp from the last watering? Then wait a little. Has the plant been repotted? Then it's important to use a moisture meter or water level indicator!
How much light does the Caryota Mitis - 120cm need?
When it comes to position, the Caryota Mitis isn't the fussiest. This plant does well in a bright spot, but also in a shady one. Not sure about the spot? The plant will let you know. If few new leaves appear, it's usually too dark. If the leaves lose their colour, it's too bright.
Is the Caryota Mitis - 120cm toxic?
The Caryota Mitis isn't toxic, so it's a good match for children and pets.
