The Kentia Palm (Howea forsteriana) is a graceful and elegant plant, renowned for its long, arching fronds and slender, upright trunk. Originating from Lord Howe Island in Australia, this palm is prized for its adaptability and low maintenance, making it a favorite among both beginner and experienced gardeners. Its resilience and understated elegance make it a superb choice for enhancing both indoor and outdoor spaces.

How to Grow

Best suited for USDA zones 9-11, Kentia Palms thrive in partial to full shade with well-draining soil. Begin with a healthy, disease-free Kentia Palm, preferably in the range of one to three feet tall. Younger palms adapt more quickly and integrate more easily into new environments than older, transplanted ones. Plant in a hole that is twice as wide as the root ball, backfilling with a combination of native soil and compost, and water thoroughly.

Care Tips

Water your Kentia Palm moderately, allowing the soil to dry out slightly between watering. Avoid overwatering to prevent root rot. This palm prefers a humid environment, so in drier indoor conditions, misting the fronds or using a humidity tray can be beneficial. Fertilize the Kentia Palm with a balanced, slow-release fertilizer during its growing season.

Uses

The Kentia Palm serves as an elegant ornamental plant for landscapes or indoor spaces, adding a touch of tropical sophistication. Ideal for creating a relaxed, natural atmosphere, its graceful fronds bring life and movement to any setting. It also works well as an indoor air purifier and is excellent for creating soft, natural partitions in larger rooms.

Planting Tips

Select a location that offers partial to full shade, accommodating the Kentia Palm's preference for indirect light. Ensure there's enough space for the palm to reach its mature height of 20-30 feet. While it is adaptable to various soil types, it thrives best in soil enriched with organic matter.

Kentia Palm Maintenance

Pruning requirements for the Kentia Palm are minimal, primarily to remove dead or dying fronds. Be cautious not to over-prune, as each frond is vital to the palm's health. Regularly monitor for signs of nutrient deficiency, such as yellowing leaves, and adjust your fertilization regimen as needed.

Pests and Diseases

While generally robust, Kentia Palms can sometimes be affected by pests like spider mites, especially when grown indoors. Routine checks and prompt treatment with suitable insecticides or miticides will keep these pests at bay. Diseases are rare but can include root rot due to overwatering or poor drainage. Ensuring proper watering habits and good soil drainage is essential for disease prevention.

An Invitation into the Heart of Reality
Format: Kindle
I love reading Anne Lamott. She helps me feel that it’s okay to be human. She helps me see that prayer is human. It’s the most natural thing you can do. And, really, everybody does it, whether they know it or not. In this delightful book, Ms. Lamott reflects on what she calls three essential prayers: help, thanks, and wow! Such human expressions! She invites us, the readers, into her perspective on life, infused as it is with both the mundane and the mysterious. There are times when it is even threatening. But we are not alone. We have each other, and we have God. (Or, better, God has us.). I don’t know that Ms. Lamott would want to be called an optimist, but she certainly sees the good in the bad (or, maybe after the bad). Life is both, she seems to say, but all is okay. So we ask for help when we’re wise enough (or desperate enough) to do so—both for ourselves and others. And we say thanks because life is full of reasons to be grateful. And there is so much beauty around us—and tragedy too—that we cannot help but erupt with wow! I urge you to read this book. Perhaps, as you read it, you will feel as I did reading it, that you are in a conversation with someone very wise and very compassionate and very real.

Another Thanks and Wow by Anne Lamott!
Format: Hardcover
I was first introduced to Anne Lamott's writing about 25 years ago when I read her book, Bird by Bird. It was a book about how to write and from that moment she became one of my favorite authors. Help, Thanks, Wow is a wonderful book that I have underlined and reread over and over again. Her writing has a voice that many of us can relate to. It's honest and you can feel her pain. She writes with humor to balance the good with the bad. Something that is so important to learn as we go through life. Her descriptions help you see, feel, and smell when she describes "autumn...the colors are broccoli and flame and fox fur. The tang is apples. The rot smells faintly of grapes..." She tells us how to ask for help when you can't do it all by yourself, but how important it is to say thank you, thank you, thank you and Wow for all the things you are grateful for. I loved when she wrote about how service to others is joy ,but how important it is to be kind to yourself. One of my favorite passages was this one, "This morning at six when I awoke, loneliness was sitting on my chest like a dental X-ray apron, even though I was buried in hairy dog love. Help, I am sad and lonely, and already it looks like today is going to be too long. I prayed...I did a kindness to myself, as I would have a troubled friend..." Her descriptions are all like this one and easy to relate to. I loved this book and have given it to friends who have then bought it for other friends. It is definitely a WOW!!!!

Not bad, but not my cup of tea
Format: Hardcover
After seeing Anne Lamott on TV, I was impressed with her and checked out this book on Amazon. The reviews were good, so I ordered it. I was a bit disappointed on receiving it, as I didn't like the shape of the book (too small) and I didn't like the type style (too hard to read). Then, I struggled to get into the book. I like to highlight insights in inspirational books, and I simply didn't find anything to highlight in this one. I think Anne Lamott is a lovely person and I understand how a lot of people liked this book. However, it just didn't bring any new insights to the table for me and it wasn't written in a way that I found compelling. The good news is, it wasn't too hard to finish, since it is short. I passed it on to someone I hope will enjoy it.

I Just Want to Read It Again!
Format: Hardcover
***** What a brilliant book! When I first received "Help, Thanks, Wow: The Three Essential Prayers" I too was so disappointed that it was such a small book--tiny, short, maybe an hour's read. Ah, but what an hour! Precious. And to be completely truthful, this book actually took me several hours to read, because I had to put it down, think, cry, laugh, and even--yes--pray. This book is worth your time and attention. I am so glad that I have it in hardback because I will keep it forever and reread it regularly; I am finished reading it and I just want to read it all over again. It is a book about getting through life. It is rich, raw, funny (hilarious, like all Annie Lamott) and written in language so stunning I would have to stop and just read and reread sentences. I feel as though my life has been broken open with a whole new attitude towards prayer, and even more, towards being alive. This is not a religious book at all, but a book for anyone who is spiritually-oriented and maybe especially for those who aren't, because the author writes about prayer in a way that every single person can relate to. This is a book about being real and true and simple and clear and about living a worthwhile life. Don't miss this book. Highly recommended. *****

It’s great for the bathroom.

It’s great. I use it in all my bathrooms. It’s easy to change the paper. It fits on the tank and dresses it up.
