Plantation

  1. Location: Choose a location with bright, indirect light, away from direct sunlight. Metallica Palm can tolerate low light but will grow slower.

  2. Pruning: Remove dead or yellowing leaves with clean, sharp pruning shears.
  3. Repotting: Repot every 2-3 years, or when roots become visible at the bottom of the pot.

Care

  1. Temperature: Keep the plant in a room with temperatures between 65-85°F (18-29°C).
  2. Humidity: Maintain high humidity levels around the plant by placing it on a pebble tray or using a humidifier.
  3. Pest control: Inspect regularly for pests like spider mites and scale insects. Treat with insecticidal soap or neem oil as needed.
