Howea forsteriana

Cultivation Howea forsteriana
The Howea forsteriana develops like a shrub. The Howea forsteriana develops long arcuate leaves ; the deportment is typical of palm trees , with a pretty erect stem in the lower part, bringing an arched crown. This plant in the winter assumes a green colouring; it is medium in size and can reach 1,2 m high. It keeps its leaves in the winter.

Light Howea forsteriana
It prefers partially shady locations, where it can be reached by the solar rays only during the coolest hours of the day. The Howea forsteriana is a pretty delicate plant, which fears minimum temperatures below 15°C; during late spring it can be cultivated outdoors.Let's avoid exposing apartment plants to direct sunlight, which could damage the leaves, especially during the hottest months of the year. We should prefer a bright position, but with filtered light.

Water Howea forsteriana
We suggest watering these plants with 2-3 glasses of water only when the soil is perfectly dry, generally it needs to be watered about every 1-2 weeks . Let's avoid to exceed. To avoid that a scarce drainage could favour the development of fungal diseases, let's remember to avoid leaving water in the saucer.

Pests Howea forsteriana
The spring weather, with a high temperature swing between the day and night hours, and pretty frequent rains, can favour the development of fungus diseases, which should be treated pre-emptively with a systemic fungicide, to use before the gems grow excessively; at the end of the winter we also suggest a wide range insecticide to prevent the attack of aphids and cochineals. We should always remember to do these treatments when there aren't flowerings in the garden.

Mold Howea forsteriana
