The "Areca Palm", "Dypsis lutescens" or "Butterfly Palm" is a native plant to Madagascar but has since been introduced to many tropical and subtropical regions of the Americas.
This is one of our most popular indoor plants and no wonder, with its' slender arching yellow stems and feathery evergreen leaves.
And areca palms don’t just look good – they’re also good at removing toxins like formaldehyde from the air.
Here in Ireland, it can thrive in an indoor environment, albeit with some care to mimic those tropical climates.
