Description
The Dypsis Bamboo Palm (Dypsis lutescens), also known as the Areca Palm or Butterfly Palm, is a popular indoor plant characterized by its feathery, arching fronds and slender, bamboo-like stems. This tropical palm thrives in bright, indirect light and adds a lush, airy feel to any space. They don’t like their soil to dry out between waterings so watering it 1-2 times a week when the top soil is dry is more than efficient.
One of its most interesting features is its natural ability to act as an air purifier; it effectively filters out toxins like xylene and toluene, making it a great choice for enhancing indoor air quality. This palm is also known to be pet-friendly, making it a safe and attractive option for households with animals.
