Can someone help me identify this palm!?

last modified: 4 years ago

I'm trying to identify the palm I received as a gift from my parents in an attempt to take better care of it and keep it alive. Can anyone on here help me identify the palm? I have attached 3 pictures and I am happy to attach more if someone needs a better one. So far I think it could be one of the following:

Areca Palm ( Dypsis lutescens )
Cascade Palm (Chamaedorea cataractarum)
Kentia Palm (Howea forsteriana)

Sort by:Oldest

Looks like a majesty palm. Common in big box stores but notoriously difficult to keep happy indoors. Mine has done best spending the summer outside.

I agree with caryllss, I'd remove the dead leaves and the other stuff on the top of the soil, give her at least 5 hours of indirect sunlight and keep the soil moist, never let the soil get dry, they hate that and never let it sit in water. I miss having one, my cats loved it to much, I thought about getting rid of the cats and keeping the palm LMAO only kidding, I gave the palm to a good home instead..

Its a nice size so I'd say 350-400 dollars is a good deal to anyone buying it. If you expect them to dig it up themselves then you might want to sell it for no more than 300 since there is a risk that the roots will be damaged when they are dug up. -Alex

Ask the person who does the decor in the show homes . The sofa is an easy match to 100s of MCM style sofas . The chair maybe check out teak MCM armchair might not be a perfect match but close Wayfair has one . As for the table that could be the thing hardest to find on line but you could have it made . IMO does not work with the other pieces but that is just me.
