Areca Palm (Dypsis lutescens / Chrysalidocarpus lutescens)

The Areca Palm (Dypsis lutescens or Chrysalidocarpus lutescens) is a very elegant and durable palm tree for use indoors or outdoors, either planted in pots or in garden soil in areas with mild winters. It has large and compound palm-shaped leaves with a bright green color, which over time will change to golden yellow - adding another decorative dimension to the plant. But apart from the decorative use, Areka is also a diligent cleaner of the atmosphere of the houses, offices or professional spaces in which it will be placed. According to the famous NASA research, the plant absorbs the toxic substances formaldehyde, xylene and toluene and at the same time enriches the air with oxygen. In order to carry out such a function, it is necessary to place 1 Areca Palm plant per 15 to 25 square meters.

► It is offered at a price determined by the particular characteristics of the plant, such as the size of the pot, its height, age and shape. Large shrubs are also available for sale (and planting) upon prior arrangement. In any case, the price or prices listed are indicative.
