With our Dypsis collection, tropical elegance comes to your home. Dypsis, closely related to Areca, are indoor palms loved for their slender habit and finely divided foliage. It is impossible to overlook the famous 'Areca' (Dypsis lutescens) or Butterfly Palm with its long arched stems and delicate, bright green leaves—an ideal green plant for creating an urban jungle vibe.
Dypsis originate from the Indian Ocean and belong to the Arecaceae family. Among the must-haves is the Dypsis decaryi (Triangle Palm), recognisable by its massive trunk and foliage arranged along three distinct axes. The Dypsis plumosa is an exceptionally graceful species with a translucent and dynamic appearance, earning it the nickname 'Ballerina Palm' among English speakers. The more understated Dypsis cabadae has a compact habit and glossy dark green leaves.
These tropical palms thrive in bright, indirect light, well-drained soil, and moderate watering—keeping the potting mix slightly moist but not watelogged. Maintain temperatures between 18-24°C for optimal growth.
