Howea forsteriana, the Kentia palm or thatch palm, is a species of flowering plant in the palm family Arecaceae, endemic to Lord Howe Island in Australia. It is also widely grown on Norfolk Island.

Indoors plants grow to about 3 metres indoors although they can be trimmed to prevent them growing taller. If they are kept in small pots this will restrict their growth. When these plants mature in age and size they make a great feature point within living rooms, hallways and offices. 

Great for a low light or medium lit room or corner.

Repot your plant if you want it to grow taller, liquid feed in the growing months every month and allow to dry out a little between watering, check about once a week. Don’t allow it to sit in water or it can from root rot.

How often should I fertilize my plant?

• In general, house plants will thrive when they are fertilized spring through fall. Fertilize once a month with an organic houseplant fertilizer, following the package instructions for dilution and administration.
• We recommend : Plant Runner for a long lasting lush life.
