Product Information
We do our best to ensure product descriptions, specifications, care information and other details are accurate and up to date. Information is provided as a general guide and may vary between batches, suppliers, individual plants or product revisions.

Stock availability
Website stock levels update live from our inventory system, but occasional discrepancies can occur due to in-store sales, damage or stock adjustments. This is more likely when only 1 or 2 units are showing as available.

Product images
Images are provided as a visual guide and may not show the exact individual item for sale. Plants can naturally vary in size, fullness, colour, shape and stage of growth, and images may show a mature specimen to demonstrate how a younger plant may develop.

Images are either owned by Kambarang Garden Centre, used under an appropriate licence or with permission, or created with AI assistance. AI imagery is used to improve the background of existing photos, and to provide representative images where a suitable real-world photo is difficult or impractical to obtain, particularly for mature plants. Special care is taken to preserve the genuine appearance, colour, form, foliage, flowers and growth habit as accurately as current AI image technology allows.

Plant sizing
Plant sizes refer to the pot size, not the exact size of the plant. For example:

  • 100 mm = 10 cm diameter pot
  • 140 mm = 14 cm diameter pot
  • 5 L = 5 litre pot

Smaller pot sizes generally indicate younger plants, although actual plant size can vary significantly between species, varieties and growth habits.

Description

Kentia Palm (Howea forsteriana) is an elegant and versatile evergreen palm native to Lord Howe Island. Its graceful arching fronds and slender trunk make it a favourite for adding a tropical touch to gardens, patios, or indoors. In its natural environment, this palm can reach an impressive height of 15 M, but it can be kept smaller and manageable when grown in pots, making it ideal for smaller spaces or as an indoor feature plant.

Thriving in well-drained soil, the Kentia Palm prefers a bright, filtered light position outdoors or a well-lit spot indoors. Water moderately, allowing the topsoil to dry slightly between waterings, and avoid overwatering, especially in pots. This hardy palm requires minimal maintenance and is perfect for Perth's climate, handling a wide range of conditions with ease. Fertilise during the growing season for lush, vibrant foliage.
