Don't buy!!! Infested and dying/dead!
Loved it at first. Green, lush. But just like many many other buyers, after a month, I noticed the leaves were browning.
It's the only plant I have in my apartment, so I keep a good eye on it.
No matter what I did, more/ less water, misting, rotating the plant, offered more/ less light, everything, it continued a downward decline.
At first, I figured it must be a very picky species of palm and that must be the reason for its poor health. But the nursery down the street has a store full of these.
I finally read some reviews on here. It's the exact same issue!! There's webbing (I just dusted these thinking it was just dusty), yellow and brown spotting, and I looked today a found a bunch of white eggs on top of the soil. This thing is infested with bugs!!
The more I looked, the more tiny little mites there are crawling around the leaves and webbing.
I have no other plants, no pets, nothing else in my closed up, northern facing, Colorado apartment.
Tossing this thing and going to the nursery down the street. What a waste! I'd ask for my money back, but doubt I'd get it. It's been only 3 months.
