WATERING & FERTILIZING:
Water a kentia palm well and then allow the top few inches of soil to dry out before watering again. Over watering, resulting in root rot, is the major reason why kentias die. The lower the light level, the less frequently kentias need to be watered. Kentia palms, like most indoor palms, are very sensitive to chemicals in the water such as salt, fluoride, and chlorine; use bottled water if your water has a high chemical concentration. Do not allow plant to sit in water. Overwatering can cause root rot. A kentia palm is a very slow growing plant and should only be fertilized once a month in the spring and summer with a basic houseplant food. In very low light conditions, use the plant food at � strength.
