Parlor Palm Houseplant Care
Basic Parlor Palm Plant Care

Parlor Palm (Chamaedora elegans) is a very popular houseplant with rich green, slightly arched and slender leaves. Parlor Palm plants are often passed from generation to generation as the very slow-growing lives actively for many years. The small size, ranging from a few inches to three feet, makes Parlor Palm plants an ideal match for tabletop decorations, terrariums, and other small spaces inside a house. Some may also wish to grow hardy plants in a shaded border, a courtyard, or the warmth and shade of a patio. Care for Parlor Palm plants is moderately easy. These plants require an evenly moist environment with moderate humidity.

Parlor Palm Plant Care: Light Requirements

Native to rainforest regions, Parlor Palm (Chamaedora elegans) thrives in low light and shaded areas of the home. Bright filtered light is also acceptable but do not place in direct sunlight. Intense light may cause drying of the plant which can lead to pest and pathogen problems later or cause the Parlor Palm to perform poorly.

Parlor Palm Plant Care: Water Requirements

Parlor Palm prefers areas with high humidity. The soil around a Parlor Palm should be evenly moist. Water freely during the growing season but reduce the frequency of watering during the winter. Make sure that the soil remains moist but well drained. Brown leaf tips are a common problem with Parlor Palm and are usually indicative of excessive soil watering or a lack of humidity
