Feature this beauty on a table, dresser, or desk. When tall enough, it can anchor a section of room on the floor. WIth enough age and light, the Neanthe bella palm can flowers inside. Caring for the Neanthe bella palm is easy. It prefers medium to bright, indirect light and should be watered when the top inch of soil feels dry. The plant likes its soil to be lightly moist.
