Bamboo Palm

Bamboo Palms are not bamboo at all but are a type of palm in the Araceae family. They are ideal houseplants that can add a tropical feel to any room. Plus, they are listed on NASA’s clean air varieties list. Bamboo palms are popular houseplants because they are low-maintenance and they do well in a variety of lighting conditions. They do require consistent moisture. Unlike other palms, they do not require bright light in order to thrive. Avoid hot, direct sunlight as it will burn their delicate leaves. Moist but well-draining soil is best for bamboo palms. Soil that is porous but humus-rich is ideal. The soil of bamboo palms should be kept evenly moist, but never waterlogged. Bamboo palms are sensitive to both overwatering and under-watering, but it is always best to under-water rather than overwater. Allow the top of the soil to dry slightly between waterings.
