Dypsis lutescens's many common names - Areca Palm, Butterfly Palm, and Bamboo Palm to name just a few - indicate the popularity of this easy-care house plant. For best results, place this palm in a well-lighted room with moderate humidity, and water only when the top soil is dry. Suitable for growing in a container with other house plants, Areca Palm will eventually attain a height and breadth that demands its own space, making it a spectacular indoor specimen. Non-toxic to pets and named one of the best air purifying plants by NASA, this multi-named palm is simply a great house plant.
